Ink Pencil Stains
Dear Aunt Daisy, I find I have some ink pencil marks on new cream blankets, Could you please advise me what to do?-I, remain, "Alice," Wanganui, Yes, Alice, try this method. First get some pure methylated spirits from the ehemist. Put a folded towel underneath the ink pencil marks and dab with the meths, working from outside the marks to the centre. Finally wash out in warm soapy water, not the whole blanket, but just the marked patches. One of our readers found this successful on her husband’s suit. He had been at the races on a wet day with an ink pencil in his pocket.
