Alf1751978 on Jun 05, 2015I've also had ink stains and I used non-aerosol hair spray. The pump kind is what you want. Sometimes you may need to spray it a few times, but always rinse in cold water. I've heard that heat "sets" the stain.Helpful Reply

Cindy Moore on Jun 06, 2015If it just doesn't want to come out think about making more ink stains elsewhere for a new look! Put a button in the middle? Stencil something around it? put a patch over it and other patches elsewhere?Helpful Reply

Jean on Jun 06, 2015When I was in the Navy and we had to wear whites and my husband would leave a pen in his pocket and I'd wash the load with that pen...it was hard. But spot correcting with cheap hair spray (I used Aquanet) for the worst stains then washing in cold water with bluing worked well. I have a hard time finding bluing nowadays, have to special order it from an old fashioned hard ware store but it works.Helpful Reply

Tina on Jun 07, 2015Hairspray! Spray the ink on both sides and soak it up with a dry cloth. A friend of mine spilled coffee on her white dress, I used the hairspray trick and the stain completely disappeared. Once it dried, we couldn't even tell where the stain had been. I SWEAR BY IT!Helpful Reply

Mother on May 17, 2016BEFORE YOU USE HAIRSPRAY ... because you haven't told us what kind of ink it is, or what kind of fabric .... spray with lukewarm water or soda water, using a spray bottle with a good, strong spray, and blot with clean tissues or cloth between each spray. It should begin to break down the ink. You'll probably get most of it out this way, and it has the advantage of not setting the ink. If so, keep up the spray/blot routine until the tissues/cloth comes away clean. What is left will then come off with rubbing alcohol or eucalyptus oil, followed by a good wash.Helpful Reply
