How can I remove permanent black marker from clothes?
1) Treat stains as soon as possible. Fresh stains can be removed more easily than old ones. Rubbing alcohol works best on ink stains. Hairspray (old fashioned stuff, nothing with added polymers or proteins as they tend to spread the stain.) 2) Check manufacturer’s labels as to fabric content and any special instructions 3) Always test stain removal solution first on a hidden part of the article or on swatch of fabric taken from seam allowance to insure no color loss or damage will occur. 4) Where possible, lay stained article face down on paper towels or clean white cloth and apply stain removal solution to underside of stain so that stain can be removed from the surface instead of pushing it through the fabric. Replace towels or cloth as they absorb stain to prevent stain transfer. 5) If enlisting the aid of a professional laundry or dry cleaner, be sure to indicate what the stain is and the type of fabric. 6) Do not iron stained garments or put in dryer as this may set stain. * Also
