Try a dab of rubbing alcohol,or hair spray,leave on for a few minutes then re-wash them.
So here’s the big secret to removing ink stains from your clothing – it’s alcohol. Non-aerosol hairspray, and good old hand sanitizer. Both products contain alcohol, ethanol if you want to be specific, which acts as a powerful solvent.
Spray the hairspray liberally on the stains until they are totally saturated, or massage the hand sanitizer
Let the products soak into the stains for about 10 minutes or so, then tossed them into the wash on a regular wash cycle. No muss, no fuss..
I have always sprayed the spots w hairspray then turned them face down and rubbed them from the back onto a towel or something that doesnt matter that way you dont ruin the fabric on the frnt of your clothing
I did that too! Out of the dryer, I thought there's no way, but I remembered a friend told me Lestoil will take out just about anything. So I dabbed lestoil on all the ink spots, re washed it and not a spot left! It is a cleaning agent from way back, should be easy to find. Google it if you can't. Good luck!!
You can buy ball point ink remover in the laundry section of the supermarket or similar stores. Be careful where you use it, as it may eat through some surfaces.
I do not know if it works on gel ink. I imagine that if it does, it will say so on the label. It does do a good job on ball point pen ink, however.
Hair spray or hydrogen peroxide might work
