Leather sofa permanent marker lines

[endevour 10]

Kids have marked leather sofa with permanent marker on seats and sides. Have tried using DFS inkaway but this has made it worse (Not fault of DFS product but ours due to ours as product clearly states will not remove permanent ink).

Any idea's?

Loads of suggestions. If you arent sure then test it on a piece thats out of eyesight.

Have a search on the interweb thingy; google seems to work OK.

 

Try, in no particular order, and only one at a time, hairspray, nail varnish remover, sunscreen, hand sanitiser gel etc.

 

N.B. first try some on a hidden bit of the sofa where it can't be seen, then use the same marker on a hidden bit and see what shifts it without making it worse, then and only then, have a try on the kids artwork.

 

Good luck.

99% isopropyl and cotton buds, with a clean damp cloth....

Isopropyl alcohol, test on spot out of sight first.

Might be hard but not impossible to get.

Label removers usually contain it.

Saddle soap should work.

Overwrite with a whiteboard marker pen and wipe vigorously. I have seen this work on metal.

Works on whiteboards too, but leather is rather absorbent.
