How to Remove Ink From White Leather

Whether your kids have taken a marker to your white leather couch or your pen leaked in your white leather bag, you may be in a panic, but removing ink from white leather may not be the Herculean task you imagine. As long as you get to the stain quickly, you will likely have good luck using common household products to clean the leather.

Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
Isopropyl alcohol
Cotton cosmetic pad or white cotton cloth

Instructions

- 1
  Try a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Wet the white part of the sponge, and squeeze till it is just damp. Rub the sponge gently (no scrubbing ) on the stain's surface until it is clean. Pat it dry with a clean white cloth.

  Use Isopropyl alcohol if the Magic Eraser doesn't work. Dampen a cotton cosmetic pad or white cotton cloth with Isopropyl alcohol. Dab the leather in a small inconspicuous area to test. If there is no discoloration, proceed with the next step.

  Dab the leather with the cloth in a small area, working from the outside to the inside in a circular pattern.

  When you see the ink transfer to the cloth or pad, dampen a new, clean area of the cloth or get a new pad.

  Keep blotting until all the ink is gone. Don't scrub hard as leather is sensitive, and you don't want to damage the surface.

  Let the leather air dry.
