What is the grey leather item that is stained with the ink?
Hello Yolanda,
Use milk on a clean white cloth and gently rub in circles. It may take more than one application. If it is permanent ink - try a little Surgical Spirit on a cloth. Good luck!
Try a little salt sprinkled on the stain and gently rub with a rag that has a mix of dish-soap and water. See if you can get anywhere with that first.
I would use automotive leather cleaner. Then make sure to use a good conditioner afterwards.
Hello. I hope you find the perfect solution. I had leather stands on a yellow coach handbag I had trouble removing them. I got them to fade and then I use an acrylic touch up paint to try to disguise it further.

Try isopropyl alcohol or hairspray!
Hello Yolanda, this should help you,
First try putting some hairspray on a cotton swab, rib the area lightly. To remove the stain with rubbing alcohol if hairspray does not work. Apply the alcohol and rub the stain with a cotton swab, then follow with a clean, damp microfiber cloth. Repeat the process with a clean cotton swab.

Whether you’ve got a leather couch, a leather purse, or a leather jacket, chances are you run into an ink stain every once in a while. We carry pens in our purses and write lists while lounging on the couch, right?
The good news is, ink stains on leather can be removed. The sooner you discover the stain, the better, as more recent ink stains are easier to handle. Whether you’re working with leather ink stains on suede, vinyl, or smooth leather, the stain removal process is the same.
Determine whether your purse is made of finished leather or naked leather. Add a drop of water to the leather. If the water rolls off, it's finished leather. If the water soaks in, it's naked leather. Finished leather contains a top layer or coating that protects the leather from moisture. Naked leather, also called pure aniline leather, has no protective coating and is more absorbent. If the purse is made of naked leather, the ink is more difficult to remove. Take the naked leather purse to a professional cleaner.
If your purse is made of finished leather
Moisten a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol. Perform a “spot test” before attempting to remove the ink stain. Find a part of the leather that is relatively hidden to see the effects beforehand. Apply the cotton ball with rubbing alcohol onto a small portion of the leather, and let it sit for 10 minutes (you shouldn’t encounter any problems, but it’s always good to perform this spot test beforehand just to be sure.) Apply the cotton ball with rubbing alcohol onto the leather ink stain. In a circular motion, gently rub the affected area, using a circular motion. Do not scrub. You should begin to see the ink stain gradually disappear. Using leather conditioner, apply a small amount to the affected area. This will bring back moisture and shine.
Though you can use hairspray for other types of ink stains, do not use hairspray to get ink out of leather. Though hairspray does contain alcohol, the rest of the ingredients will damage the leather.
