ds2 has just scibbled black biro on one of the sofa cusions - any ideas, as I have no stain remover in the house.

I have heard that toothpaste or milk work well on biro-never tried it though.

arh...have no idea but: try nail polish remover. don't know if it works but just as an idea - i hope it won't spread the stain! or try OxiClean tomorrow. it works on most stains. when i'm faced with a stain like this i start with Fairy liquid, then i try vanish and oxyclean as a last solution.

washing up liquid neat then sponge off

diluted vinegar may work

Turn the cushion over? OK 'til he scribbles on the other side too.

wet wipes- they remove anything!
