Be careful. But you can try either alcohol or nail polish remover (just not too much).

All of the above. Went to the Ford dealer and they tried a vesco cloth that removes paint and other things on a sample piece I brought in. Worked! going to wait till tomorrow and see what happens to the sample before we try it on the real thing.


Thanks!!

Automatic dishwasher soap or go to a commercial Dry Cleaners and buy Albatross Ink-X that’s what they use.

Good Luck be careful sometimes trying a Solvent will make the problem worse!

Laquer thinner takes it off. However, it also damages the vinyl. Last resort and be quick!

BTW-did you guys know that those water soluable felt tipped pens stain gel coat? Figured that one out the hard way...

I've used a product called SprayPower that I get at Walmart for about $1.80/32oz. It seems to work on everything else so it may work on the ink as well. If you can't find it they have a website www.spraypower.com
