Title: ink stain
Post by: emills55 on November 07, 2009, 08:54:19 am

Can anyone tell me the best thing to use for ink stain on carpets.   What are the likely outcomes for this, will it all come out or will a stain be left?

Any answers will be much appreciated.  Got to go and sort it today.

Carpet fibre type?

It is wool carpet.
I don't know what the ink type is I have just been asked to try to sort it out.  But maybe I can ask that question.
