RE: Ink on Leather Car Upholstery
I just tried antibacterial gel on my car armrest and didn't do much. I then tried the hairspray and it worked but be very careful and leave it on for two seconds then blot off clean area with the antibacterial gel. I did not try removing the whole thing it is very faint. I just did not want to risk the hairspray damaging the leather.

RE: Ink on Creme colored Leather Sofa
We tried almost every household product we could find. DO NOT use nail polish remover though. It takes out the stain but takes the out the dye with it. We actually ended up having great success with Cutter's Insect Repellent. We sprayed it on and left it there for about 2 seconds and then wiped it off immediately. DO NOT spray and wait. It will lighten the leather slightly but if you spray and wipe off after 2 seconds you should be fine.

I now have a part of my seat that is REALLY clean with a big pen stain still there.

Aftershave, may work on a glazed finish leather, but not on a porus leather. Also it can remove the colour if not applied carefully.
Leather is expensive and needs a professional kit when it comes to ink removal. Try this one - http://www.furnitureclinic.co.uk/LeatherInkRemover.htm

Aftershave works well. Personally I used a generic brand with great success, and I've heard Adidas brand works well also. It got the black permanent marker off of our leather couch.

If the ink is not a marker spray hair spray on an area that won't show first to be sure it won't ruin your apulstry. The cheaper the better. Dab with hot water and soap after a few minutes of sitting untouched. You may need to do this several times to remove all of the ink. Markers will come out with a protuct from a janitorial supply company designed for the project. Each store caries different products.
Happy ink be gone

Anti-bacterial handgel works very well on ink stains. I've used it with great success on all kinds of stains including permanent marker and it works great without harming any surface I've used it on.

Have you tried hairspray or isopropyl alcohol? Both have worked very well for me in the past.

I have had success using methylated spirits and a cloth on most surfaces, just not sure how it would go on a large area. Can it be tested in a less obvious area?
