    One method I successfully use on my work shirts is to blot the ink with a cotton cloth saturated with alcohol.
    One day I might try not throwing the shirts in the wash with pens in the pocket, that might be an even more successful method.

    If you can find some.....use aresol hairspray...used it on a sweater with an entire pen ink on it, and it all came out. It has to be the aresol type , not just the pump kind. Must be something in the aresol that helps it work. The use water to get the spray out or shop vac it.

    Baby wipes will get out about anything. I had blue ink on my leather seats yesterday and was able to rub it out. Baby wipes have also pulled spots out of my thick home carpet.

    Yeah Alcohol will probably do it. It has worked for ink removal on my bass boat after pen explosion.
