How do I get a ballpoint pen stain out?

Answer by  MrsJames (79)

Hairspray is a good way to get an ink stain out. First, spray the stain with hairspray and let it sit 10-15 minutes, dab it, then spray and let sit again for an hour. Scrub the spot with a toothbrush, rinsing the toothbrush as needed, repeating the spraying process as many times as needed to get the stain out.

The best way to get an ink stain out of clothing is to use hair spray. It doesn't really matter what kind just spray it on the ink stain and dab with a clean cloth until the ink is gone.

Treat any stain as soon as possible. Ballpoint pen marks are easy to remove. Spray the mark with hair spray and dab with a cotton ball gently until gone.
