How can i get a biro stain out of a leather settee?

Question asked by: knowitall

Really hot water - as hot as you can stand with leather cleaner and washing up liquid. SCRUB. Then rinse. It worked for me!

I have just used some alcohol gel (the type that you use to wash hands without water and can be bought at a chemist or even at Asda)and although the pen mark has not completely gone, it is significantly less noticeable. My leather suite is cream so I consider this to be a good result.

Put a bit of nail varnish remover on a cloth & rub on the stain & it should take it off. test on the back of the sofa 1st as it may ruin some types of leather
