Ink on shirt
I'm not sure if this is the right place, but I looked through them all and decided on this.
My son left an ink pen in his pocket (with out a lid) and I have been soaking it in BIZ for a while and a varieties of other things over the last couple days. Does any one know a cure all for ink stains?:confused:

I have used an acetone based finger nail polish remover. U have to put a rag under the stain and dab it on with another rag should come off onto the rag under the stain.

Spray hairspray (enough to completely soak the stain) and then pour baking soda on top of it (to soak the ink and hairspray up). Let it sit for about 30 minutes. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 times for fully bring the ink out.
Hope I could help. I've done this several times and it really works!

Pump is better because it's easier to control where it goes but it really does not matter too much.

Yep. Hairspray works wonders. Be careful so that you won't get the ink run on other parts of the shirt.

I'm on my second try, maybe it's not working because I had already washed it a couple times.

You say you have washed it. Have you dried it? If you had, it probably too late as the heat sets the stain.

I agree, hair spray works wonders. However, acetone or alcohol work huge wonders. Hair spray once contained several solvents but are now quit tame. It is one of several things to try. How to Remove Ball Point Pen Ink

I have not dried the shirt in the drier, just let sit until the next application. I will try the alcohol next and then the shaving cream.
Thanks
