Years ago, hair spray worked because the alcohol content was so high-but most hair spray no longer contains alcohol so it will only serve to set the stain.<BR/><BR/>Alcohol works best applied ASAP. It breaks the ink down, so it will run. So using a rag to soak it up is just as important. It may take several applications/scrubbing to remove it.Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04332589956455952959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33601844.post-36648973978498881102007-10-03T11:40:00.000-04:002007-10-03T11:40:00.000-04:00Rubbing alcohol worked for getting pen out of a sh...Rubbing alcohol worked for getting pen out of a shirt for me.

There was ink all over 2 of the cushions. I used rubbing alcohol and an old rag and just blotted for hours, but it came off. You might do a spot check first to make sure that you don't stain the couch with the alcohol. Hope this helps!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01547734376403881449noreply@blogger.com
