Am trying to remove ink - and lots of it - from clothes. You think this will work? Am nervous about using it inside and in my washer.

It would work pretty well on a small spot treated (scrubbed) by hand. I don't think it will do anything except spread the ink if you tried to use in washer. Goof off is similar to dry cleaning fluid. It's pretty amazing on some stuff, but I think you're probably out of luck. Sorry. I just hate it when that "pen in the washer" incident happens.

interesting! We havent tried that. We only use it in the bath so far. The tablets need some time to disolve, so I'm not sure how that would work in a machine, especially with multiple cycles, like wash & rinse.. but if you're doing your laundry by hand, I would say probably it would work, but first test it on clothing you don't care too much about! (hope that helps...)

My GUESS is that it would not be the best solution as it might leave a oily residue on your clothing. I would think that a good leather cleaner and conditioner would be a better solution. i would look at a car products store for something like that.

Wanda, I use it for all my laundry and it works great. I think it is especially good on darks because it keeps them from fading, but it cleans everything. I would be more concerned with the colors from your print running when it's washed, but if it's been washed before that shouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't wash it with other darks because they might bleed onto the white background. I always throw in a SHout Color Catcher with my laundry. If colors run, it catches the dyes before the get on they other clothes. It works with the Woolite detergent great. Janet

I tried it on ink mark on the leather bag. It did lighten after we applied it few times. Actually the manufacturer called me and refunded me the amount since it didn't completely remove it. Please use the right type of cloth to wipe it as fiber cloth can further damage the bag. The good thing is it didn't spoil the finish. I am not sure about old oil stain and I haven't not used any other cleaning product.

Absolutely. The item is controlled by hand, so the strength and time is completely up to you. I frequently start a load, crank for a minute or two, and leave the load of clothes to soak for awhile. So far I've had good results with all of my clothes. Only very large items, such as comforters, coats, or pillows, would need to go to a regular washing machine. I estimate that within a couple of months' time, my handy little POD will have paid for itself. HTH.

While I have not tried it on clothes, I put the pen on a piece of white paper and put it under a heat lamp and the ink disappeared. I believe that would be the same effect but I couldn't be sure unless I tried it.The pens are meant to be used on paper, not clothing but I do understand accidents happen and I feel it could maybe be easily repaired in the manner you suggested.

It should not if you follow the label on the clothing as well as the bottle of woolite. We use it for most non-dryclean articles. Always use the delicate cycle. Everything should be fine.

I have used it to set the ink from silk screening cotton shirts. It worked well and was much faster than using my household iron. I hope this is the answer you are looking for.

It has worked for me on some microfiber clothing. I even use this as a stain remover for certain types of stains.

Yes, I used it in my top loading HE machine. I did not care for it. It left a residue in my machine and clothes.

I have used this for handwashing clothes for quite some time now and it works great! Just be sure to rinse very well...good luck!

I'm no expert, but I noticed on my converter that the actual ink compartment is deeper than just the opaque area. Mine fills to about 2/3 of that and holds sufficient ink for several long winded letters. I have not used ink cartridges, so I would contact the company for proper fit. Best of luck!

Hi The ink is permanent on paper cloth and furnishings so be careful. It will jowere wash off your skin with soap water and a little scrubbing. I hope this answers your question.

I haven't used them on fabric. My sons have gotten the ink on their clothes and it has washed out, but not sure if ironing would set it. They aren't made for that use, so I'd test on scrap fabric first.

I doubt it. This item is a great hand sanitizer; not an ink removal product. Try paint thinner or scrub harshly with an S.O.S pad.

I don't know....The only thing I know absolutely (based on experience) that takes out ink/toner stains--FROM CLOTHING--is aerosol hairspray ( don't laugh! saturate the stain with the spray...and then launder as usual---works like a charm!)I have had more luck with this brand as a CONDITIONER, more than a cleaner...i've had light marks/scuffs that it removed....but I think that was more a reflection of the good quality of the leather....I had a red leather bag some years ago with a pen mark...used COACH cleaner -- daily, gently, for about 2-weeks and that did work....
