Removing ink (pen) from seat cushions?
 

Picked up my new boat (to me) this week and took it out for a test run yesterday. Althought the boat ran great with only a few minor annoyances, I ruined an otherwise great day by leaving a ballpoint pen in my back pocket. Does anyone have a miracle solution to remove ink from the vinyl seats of a Formula.

hair spray.

Wow, never tried that but is does have acetone in it. A small amount of fingenail polish remover on a rag. DO NOT SOAK. It is acetone and will eat the vinyl if on too long.

Another great way is OXYCLEAN.

There have been a number of threads on this site on this topic. I must have a list of 15-20 items that will clean vinyl. It makes a difference whether the mark has 'set'. I had one stubborn mark on top of one of my front bolsters. Tried a few things without success. Hit it with hair spray and it was gone!

Goo Gone makes a product called "Ink Away" that we have had great success with. The key is to not bring any pens on the boat with you! :drink: :drink:

FYI. the hair spray got 90%, but there is still a line of visible (faint) ink. any other ideas?
