Hi There,

I would try dabbing a bit of fingernail polish remover onto the ink with a cotton ball. If you do not have any fingernail polish remover, I would use rubbing alcohol. The rubbing alcohol needs to be scent and dye free to work.

Other methods include lemon juice on a cotton ball, however with the acidity of lemon juice it is able to dissolve paper quicker.

A mixture of baking soda and water will work also. You mix them into a paste, enough to paint onto the ink you want to remove.

This method will work when dry. The water evaporates and the baking soda simply falls onto the table when the paste is dry.

Blue ink is easier to remove from paper than black ink. I hope that you will find one of these methods to be helpful.

Here is a link that I found that will be of help, possibly.

You can try a pen eraser. You can get them at an office supply store. You have to rub very gently, and it may not come out.
