Ball Point Pen Marks on Imitation Leather (vinyl?)

RE: Ball Point Pen Marks on Imitation Leather (vinyl?) By Kian (Guest Post) Let me save you all the trouble. If ink is on leather more than three days-it's indelible! That means that it's not coming off. You best chance is to remove it with an alcohol based product within the three days. Try using something like simple green first to remove the ink that has not penetrated the substrate then follow with the alcohol. There is no magical solution in hairspray that removes ink other that the alcohol content. Just skip the hairspray part and use straight alcohol and you won't smell like Aquanet! If you cannot remove the ink look for a suitable vinyl dye like ColorBond. Posted on 11/19/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Ball Point Pen Marks on Imitation Leather (vinyl?)

We had ball point pen marks on an electronic drum kit (the drum pads) and a baby wipe took it right off with not too much scrubbing.

I sprayed to cover the pen marks and then rubbed gently to take them all out. I rinsed with a clean rag and it looks great!

Bonnie Posted on 04/16/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Ball Point Pen Marks on Imitation Leather (vinyl?) By Susan (Guest Post) I used to work for a haircare franchise. We always used hairspray for ink on clothing. Saturate the ink mark, use much elbow grease, and repeat as many times as necessary. Persistence. It WILL come out. Not sure if this will work on the exam table, but may be worth a try. Good luck. Posted on 04/15/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Ball Point Pen Marks on Imitation Leather (vinyl?) By jeangnome46 (60) Contact I clean banks and doctor's offices also. I have used anti-bacterial hand gel with great success. Rub it into the ink and go do something else leave on the ink for about 5-10min. rub off with soft cloth or whatever cleaner you normally use. I've also removed permanent marker from countertops with it, adhesives, and chewing gum from a carpet. It will also remove black shoe marks from tile floors, and scuff marks from walls. I now keep a bottle with me at all times and when you're done cleaning you can use it on your hands. Posted on 04/14/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Ball Point Pen Marks on Imitation Leather (vinyl?)
