    Any suggestions on removing ink spill from carpet and leather seat? I have tried rubbing alcohol, not much luck. Thanks in advance.

    Ouch! Like the saying goes...


    That's going to leave a mark...


    Here's a few product for removing ink but note - I've never used these products so I cannot vouch for their effectiveness. Ink is really difficult to remove once it has penetrated INTO a material or fabric.


    Leather Master Car Interior Ink Away, ink remover, leather seat ink remover

    Leather Master Car Leather Protection & Cleaner Kit, Leather Master Ink Away Ink Remover, ink lifter, leather cleaner, leather protection

    I noticed these are for leather. there is also ink on the carpet. Do you think these products will help to remove the ink from carpet as well?

    I have no idea. Sorry.

    In my brain, it seems that if a chemical will remove ink out of a fairly dense material it would also work and possibly better on a less dense material.

    Maybe reach out to the manufacture directly via a phone call to their customer service phone number?

    Aerosol hair spray might work. Works to get ink out of clothing.

    I had a Ford Escort come in some time ago,,99 or 2000 maybe.
    The guy who traded it in worked in a print shop and the entire drivers mat and floor were stained in dark ink.
    I used a wax,grease and adhesive remover on it,,,basiclly poured it on,blotted it with rags over and over and over again.
    then after I minimized it I doused it with engine degreaser and steamed it.
    surprisingly I removed probably 97 % of the stains

    AG is awesome for car detailing stuff, but when it comes to fabrics, I go to those experts. Find a carpet cleaning supply store near you, they will have an ink remover for fabrics, you will want to know what kind of ink: printer toner, pen, magic marker, permanent marker etc. they will have the right spotter for the job. It will be an apply and extract type of procedure.
