Good news! Ink stains can be removed from the leather. It is easier to remove ink stains that have been discovered earlier than later. The stain removal process for leather ink stains on suede or vinyl is the same regardless of whether you use it on smooth leather or vinyl.

1. Use rubbing alcohol to moisten a cotton ball.
2. Before removing the ink stain, do a “spot check.” Locate a hidden leather area to see the effects of ink stain removal. Use a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol to coat a small leather area. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
3. Rub the leather ink stain with the cotton ball using rubbing alcohol. Use a circular motion to rub the ink stain gently. Do not scrub. The link should gradually fade.
4. Apply a little leather conditioner to the area. This will restore moisture and shine.
