I Googled How to... and got this site! Rubbing Alcohol works with a q-tip in seconds and there is no mark left behind! Thanks to whoever started this! :)

Rubbing alcohol and q-tip (to be able to rub a bit more brisquely than a cotton ball) worked like a charm!

The rubbing alcohol really works! I just bought an off white suede jacket that I loved at the store not knowing that there was a huge black ink line on the underarm of the jacket. I tried the rubbing alcohol and it worked like magic. It was so easy and just made the ink disappear so quickly! Highly recommend using the rubbing alcohol!

Rubbing Alcohol works great. My daughter took a ball point pen to our living room chair, and let's just say, left her mark or master piece. This worked great

I got a pen stain on my suede caramel jacket, if I use rubbing alcohol will it leave any marks?

I can't see the answer to the Suede jacket problem. I'm guessing it's alcohol. Is it here, am I stupid?

Editor's Note: The feedback talks about using rubbing alcohol and hairspray (which is mostly alcohol) so I would start there. Be sure to leave feedback about how it worked.

Request: Ink Off Suede Jacket

Archived on 03/27/2008

I have an unlined "dry clean only" suede jacket with ball point ink lines on it (drawn by a toddler). Professional cleaners in my area don't believe they could get it out. Please help. Thanks!

RE: Ink Off Suede Jacket

If the pros won't try to tackle it you should try hairspray or Armor All. Just spray hairspray (the cheap kind in a can) on the stain and wipe it off with a clean rag. (08/15/2004)

RE: Ink Off Suede Jacket

I saw on this site that Rubbing Alcohol would take ink out of a suede jacket. I tried it and amazingly it worked almost immediately. Just thought I'd let you know so that you can try it yourself! (10/22/2004)

RE: Ink Off Suede Jacket

I just bought a white suede coat and when I got it home I noticed an ink spot on the sleeve. It was the last one they had in my size, so I tried rubbing alcohol as suggested below, and it worked GREAT! Thanks! (11/30/2005)

RE: Ink Off Suede Jacket

My wife has a white suede jacket that had a ink stain on the front and rubbing alcohol took it out right away with just some light rubbing with a cotton ball. What a lifesaver! (12/03/2005)

Rubbing alcohol with a cotton cloth worked at getting ink stains off my suede car seat...thanks for the advice! (05/28/2006)

RE: Ink Off Suede Jacket

I tried both suggestions. First, I used a cottonball with rubbing alcohol and then wiped with a Viva papertowel. I let it sit for about 15 minutes and then I dried it on cold with my blowdryer. That got a good amount of the stain out. For the remaining stain, I used a new emory board and it cleared it right up. Thanks for the advice!!! (10/27/2007)

RE: Ink Off Suede Jacket

I got green ballpoint pen ink the size over the size of a quarter and my couch is beige, I was about to cry! Luckily I found this on google! I first used a wet paper towel towel to get most of the ink out of my couch, then I got my hair dryer on low and dried it while rubbing a dry paper towel over it in circles. Got the rubbing alcohol rubbed it on the stain and blow dried it with the dry paper towel and if you have rings use a q-tip! (01/04/2008)
