Thank you so much for the Spot Shot advice on ink! I left an ink pen in my uniform pocket and it went through my dryer! I got online to find out what I could do to fix my blunder and someone suggested Spot Shot. It worked! My dryer was covered in ink but now it is ink free! What a lifesaver!

Ahh D***. Im at work and I accidentally knocked over this pen which left a mark on my beautiful, new white shirt! I'm so mad but thanks to reading your comments, I'm going to try the hairspray...wish me luck! This is an Express shirt so you know I'm upset (smile)

I am so mad! I got ink from a stamp pad at work on my daughters American eagle white cords. I tried soap and then hairspray but it only faded the ink :(I think because of the corduroy texture, its going to be harder to get the ink out/if at all. I'll try rubbing alcohol tonight. wish me luck. -Boston

This is the second time my son left an ink pen in his pocket & it got all over the dryer. The first time I used Oxyclean, Borax, Clorox & A LOT of elbow grease. This time, I tried Hairspray & that worked good. But then I tried 1oo% Acetone that is used for taking off fake nails. It worked EXCELLENT! No scrubing required!! I just poured a little in, spun the dryer around a few times ( I have a side loading dryer) and it removed itself!! Just make sure you rinse the dryer out well when you are done!

Spot Shot will really work. I had used a dryer at school that had ink in it and it was a load of really good American Eagle white shirts and pants. I realized the marks after they came out of the dryer and investigated to find ink inside the dryer. I used Spot Shot on the marks and re-washed the load. I then used it inside the dryer to clean it out so it didn't happen to anyone else!! Good Luck!

My husbands new shrt had a large ink spot on the pocket. I sent it to the cleaners thinking that they would have a better chance of getting it out. It came back laundered starched and pressed with most of the ink spot there. I tried the Spot shot and it got ALL of the ink out. THANK YOU Renee for your tip. It really works.

Spot Shot Carpet Cleaner will get out ballpoint ink even after the clothing has been through the dryer!! Spray it on the ink spot and wash. I washed a whole load of school uniform pants and then put them in the dryer not knowing a pen was in there. The Spot Shot got it out. It's in a blue can with an orange cap. I call it miracle spray. Good luck.

I just washed and dryed a white dress shirt that had a blue inked pen in the pocket. Any tried and true ways of removing the ink?
Thanks,

The best way to get out ink stains is to put rubbing alcohol on the stain before washing. (02/08/2005)

If you have an article of clothing that has ink stain on it, don't throw it away. Just use a little aerosol hairspray to get the stain out. Just spray it on, rub with a stiff cloth, and launder as you normally would.

Make a paste of oxyclean, soak in hot water overnight, then wash the next day with oxyclean and detergent. I did a whole load of clothes with a gel pen, and this saved me! (10/27/2005)

I don't know about white purses but i know on white shoes i have used finger nail polish remover to remove the black scuff marks that you get on white shoes and it works great, (not on patent leather) if it works for shoes it might work for your purse. Good luck and happy cleaning! (10/27/2005)
