Getting sharpie ink out of Jeans?

Postby Carl Buck » Sep 25th, '07, 15:06



My mini sharpie has just decided to implode in my pocket, resulting in a very fetching black blob expanding across my left thigh! :cry:

Is this stuff going to come out or can I kiss these jeans goodbye?

Alcohol. Pure, medical grade alcohol.

Soak the stain, dab it with clean kitchen roll. Repeat until most of the ink is soaked to kitchen roll (use a new sheet often).

Then, get them straight in the wash.

I know, cos I've done this a million times whilst making gaffed Sharpies :O

I've saved jeans, combat trousers and an olive coloured cotton t-shirt doing this method of cleansing. Do the above as soon as you can!

(Well, a million is an exaggeration, but hey, we're magicians, and we like to make things look bigger!)

I was wondering who was going to be the first to comment on that line :roll: I thought it but managed to restrain myself.

I'm also very suprised that no one's come up with any smutty comments about the stains in Carlos' jeans :roll: dear dear this place really is going down hill :wink:

Oh and why should being 18 stop you being immature, I'm 24 and still giggle like a school girl at things that I really should have grown out of by now. :oops: :D

Ah, but do kids have as much fun in childhood as grown ups have in adultery?

No, wait. That can't be right.
