O Lord. How do I get biro off my leather sofa before my husband sees it.

[mrslurkalot]

He told me not to let her have the pen!

what colour sofa?

you could try hairspray...it sometimes works

It's brown so not a complete disaster, but right in the middle of one of the seats so quite an obvious place!

wd40 or hairspray

Hairspray works on keyboards, did you get a cleaning pack when you got the sofa, mine came with a pen remover?

hairspray or even a bit of cillit bang-neat.
I have become a biro removing expert

try babywipes!

"He told me not to let her have the pen" - did he think to put it put of reach or did he just issue orders as he left?

try an eraser it worked on my table

whatever you try, please try it on an inconspicuous area first.

STOP

if it's natural leather, any sort of cleaning product will fuck it

if it's processed it should be ok

if natural,ring the shop for advice

Thanks all, think I will try a bit on the back before I start in the middle of the seat! By the way I'm not scared that I'll get into trouble, just want to avoid the whole rolling eyes, 'told you so' conversation!

i used a lightly damp cloth and Dove soap to get blue biro off cream leather sofa. and made sure the soap was wiped off properly after.

but maybe asking where you bought it would be a good start, just in case!!

It think I heard once that vasaline works. Good Luck.
