HI.  I just had an ink pen go through the dryer cycle and totally ink up the drum.  I am getting it off fairly easy with finger nail polish remover.  Get it real wet, and it starts dissolving it right away.   Just take a deep breath and don't breath when you are crawling around in there.  It's pretty bad!  Don't know yet about the clothes.  Most were black..that helps.

We tried a lot of products that didn't work but the one that worked really great was oven cleaner. We did one section at a time. Warm dryer, but on oven cleaner and then wait 10 min. and use steel wool, comes right out.

I was shocked when I went to take the clothes out of the dryer and ink stained all the towels, and the dryer, I found a ball point pen in there, I was mad at my husband but he cleaned it all up with pine sol, also it got the stains out of the clothes.

This happened to me yesterday.  I googled it and came up with soaking 3 towels in bleach, wring them out then put them in the dryer for about 60 mins...got all the ink out of the dryer!



The clothes I am not sure yet, I am going to try getting some Ink Away today.
