GRR! What else can I try using to get it out?

Unfortunately, someone got some blue ballpoint pen on my tan, leather interior (centre console armrest). I've tried a mixture of water/vinegar and have also tried Lexol Leather Cleaner, with no avail!! What else can I try??

Hair spray works great. Spray a little on the ink stain, let it sit a few seconds, then BLOT the stain with a clean white cotton towel.

Hmm...well I've heard that works great on fabric, but does it also work on leather?

Try the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I heard it was keen on removing dried on wax of the rubber/plastic moldings. It may work.

Used very carefully of course. I don't know what's in it, but
it takes out everything...
