I use regular dish washing soap to get pen marks out of clothing. I havent found anything that works as well.

steps to getting rid of ink stains!!

1.Dab rubbing alcohol onto the ink.
2.Allow a couple of minutes for the alcohol to penetrate the surface and react with the ink.
3.Blot the ink stain using layers of white paper towels or a cloth that has been dampened in either alcohol or water.
4.If the alcohol is ineffective, try using foaming shaving cream.
5.If the shaving cream doesn’t work, hairspray usually will remove ink, but it should only be used as a last resort because hairspray damages some surfaces and fabrics.
6.Non-flammable dry cleaning fluid may remove certain inks. If you use dry cleaning fluid to remove a stain, rinse the area with water afterwards.

Print Ink tranferred to a white vinyl purse

Hi there. I have a new white vinyl or leather-look purse that some newspapers were on top of and some of the ink tranferred onto my purse. I have tried nail polish remover, hair spray, Tide Stain Stick, WD40, That’s Incredible, Amodex, Clorox Clean up Cleaner with Bleach. Nothing has taken the stains out.

Does anyone know of any product that will take the stains out of my new purse? I am so sad that I never even got to use my new white purse!

Tried that. : (

Thanks Tracy, for sharing. I tried that but it did not work. That was the 1st thing I tried. There has to be something that will work.

This is regular newsprint on a white vinyl purse…not real leather.
