Stains, Mopping, Wiping, Ironing, Cleaning - cleaning leather


Expert: Todd Malin - 6/8/2009

Question
Do you know of anything that will take ballpoint ink of leather?

Thanks,

Jo

Answer
Ball point ink is really tough to get out of leather.  Try nail polish remover, but you have to test an out of sight area first to make sure the color doesn't come out when you use it.  Put a small amount on a white towel and very carefully dab the area where the ink is.  Keep doing this until the ink starts to disappear.  If it's not happening after trying it a few times, stop. You may not be able to remove it.
