        Location: Buffalo, Wyoming | Awhile back I accidently washed a pen my SO had left in his shirt pocket ( he is a big boy and should check his pockets). Anyway when I found the pen a the bottom of the washer I placed it on the dryer while I put the rest of the clothes in it. Now I have an ink stain on top of the dryer.
I have tried rubbing alcohol, magic earsers and a couple of other things. They take some of it off but not much. Anyone have any good solutions for this? This is a rental house and we are moving out this weekend..... |

| WD- 40 or Rubbing Alcohol. Magic eraser also may work. Goo gone is also good, Just plan old ice will take out ink out of clothing might try it on that too. |

Nope, use it straight out of the bottle. I would just squirt some on there and leave it for a few minutes and then try and see if it comes off. |

Let us know if it worked. We've used Awesome on several different things and they have all cleaned right up. |

        Location: Buffalo, Wyoming | Awesome didn't touch it. Have already tried hairspray and bleach. The hairspray worked on the stuff that still had a bunch of ink but didn't take it off all the way. Bleach only worked on the parts that were faded from the other stuff.
Rubbing alcohol has worked the best but smears it everywhere thus making it really hard to get stuff out of the crevices that have been made over the years. |

I think Hoofs means polish remover but that ought to work - you can buy just place acetone too. |

I tried just Dawn dish soap last night with a magic eraser and it didn't do anything, may try it with the vinegar tonight.
Also tried stain remover and it didn't work either. I may be SOL. |

Some stuff I put a little of the mixture on and let it sit for a few minutes then go back with a cloth dipped in the mixture and with a little scrubbing it comes clean. Just make sure to use hot water.
I saw someone recommend acetone. I wouldnt becuse I would be afraid it would take the paint off your drier too.
