You might need to keep rubbing for a few minutes but It works and it doesn't leave behind a bad smell. We use it to clean around my job but I saw it and thought that it might work.

It will burn your skin, and also work itself into the layers beneath. That's why your hands will smell for days afterwards, no matter how often you wash them! I would not voluntarily put bleach on my skin (or anything I wear or sleep on). Whenever I refill my ink cartridges, I will wash my hands well with soap and water. Then, I rub them well with oily lotion and take it off with a paper towel. This can be repeated as often as you like without damaging your skin. One of my friends in Germany had a problem with alarming hair loss. Her doctor finally found out from her that she used a lot of bleach in her laundry. After she stopped using bleach, her beautiful black hair grew back. Warning: BLEACH is caustic!!! It will burn your skin, and also work itself into the layers beneath.

I work on a printing press also and get ink all over me every day. We have a special cleaner at work but I don't think it's sold in stores...probably because it works lol.

Irish spring works amazingly well. Preferably the bar, but bod wash will work too.....The detergents break down ink really well......dawn works well to break up a thick amount of ink, but irish spring seems to get the majority of it.

I was using a stamp pad to make designs and got my hand smeared with ink. I tried using dishwasher soap and sugar and it did not work; even toothpaste did not work, so I tried perfume and viola! The ink was disappearing like magic! This thing works, trust me! PS - Wash your hands properly with soap and water after this. Hi!

We have discovered that the chemicals in a match head - after it has been lit and thereafter blown off - will possess the potential to successfully eliminate stubborn forms of ink.
