Ideas for removing ink (pen marks) from parchment dashboard?

My manager from work periodically rides with me and has inadvertently marked up my parchment dashboard with ink pen. Any ideas on how to remove it without damaging the dash? I tried lexol and goof off--It got a bit lighter but is still very noticeable. Any help is appreciated.

Moved to "Wash & Wax". Hopefully the cognoscenti here can help.

Has this worked for you? I've used the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser successfully for lots of things but don't want to blaze any trails because I don't want to damage the dash and devalue the car.

use some type of interior detailer with mr-clean

reason why i say this is because you need some type of liquid on the surface area so that the eraser doesnt burn through the leather.

you can use dishwashing soap, just alittle, put it on the area, and work it with the eraser.. it should take it off.

Avoid using abrasive products as you'll remove the protective coating. Instead use Iz einszett 'Plastik-Reiniger' an intensive, non-corrosive, non-acidic two-phase deep cleaner for urethane covered upholstery and vinyl trim, that removes grime build-up thoroughly and effortlessly, these chemicals restore the original texture, tactile feel and resiliency; use to clean all coloured and clear water-based acrylic polyurethane covered automotive upholstery and vinyl; this product is biodegradable, silicone and formalin-free as well as being environmentally friendly.
