Features of fabrics and selection of means, based on their structure

The first thing you need to remember, that whatever remedy was magical, it can easily damage the structure of the tissue, if it turns out to be too aggressive for her.

  • Acetone, white spirit
  • Ethanol
  • Vinegar
  • Citric acid
  • Nashatir
  • Sour milk
  • Laundry soap

Less caustic substances are suitable for wool and silk:

  • Skipidar
  • Lemon juice
  • Shaving cream
  • Talc
  • Alcohol

But you can remove the paste from the handle of synthetics with very weak substances, since, solvents can simply dissolve it, in the literal sense of the word, fully justifying its name. So, for such fabrics it is recommended to use:

  • Laundry soap
  • Dishwashing liquid
  • Baking soda
  • Hydrogen peroxide
  • Alcohol

Of course, this we are talking about home remedies, but there are also shops. They are available for a variety of fabrics, and do no harm. But, as often happens, at the most inopportune moment, namely, in that, when the stain from the ballpoint pen must be removed promptly and quickly, the desired tool is not at hand, and go to the store sooner or later, or, banal no money.

It is better to unlock such things with store tools. But, if it is not possible to buy them, try this option:

  • Apply sour milk on the stain and leave to sour for two hours. Then rinse with cold water, and then already warm.
  • You can apply a stain from the handle vinegar, leave minutes on 10, and then rinse thoroughly.
  • A mixture of baking soda and ammonia helps a lot. Make a slurry of these substances, impose on the stain, wait minutes 10, and then wash.
  • Liquid mixture for white clothes: 1 part of ammonia and 2 hydrogen peroxide. Moisten the stain from the handle with the resulting liquid, wait minutes 20, then rinse.

Also, don't forget such a wonderful thing, how cute "Antilyapin". It turns out much more profitable, than funds, type Vanish. And it is enough for a long time. So, it makes sense to always have it in stock.

The only thing, that in this case, it is necessary to lighten a little ink trace, it becomes almost invisible. So, everything is even simpler, than it seems.
