00:00 Removing Ink Stains Introduction
While we find writing with a fountain pen or simply writing by hand enjoyable, we wouldn't want any ink in our hands and clothes! But the worst can happen sometimes, and we're here to help.
01:00 Removing Ink from your Hands
Whether you've only stained your hands or you've gotten ink on both your clothes and your hands, you'll need to get the ink off of your hands first before you do anything else. If the ink is still wet, first wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water and may require the use of more serious solutions like isopropyl alcohol or acetone.
And after washing and cleaning, if stubborn stains still remain on your hands, don't worry. After two to three days, as you naturally shed your skin cells, the rest of these stains will disappear.
02:00 Pre-treat, If Possible
Wet ink is easier to remove than dry ink, so try to remove as much of the wet ink as you can right after a stain is made. Using a clean, dry cloth or a paper towel, blotch the stain, but don't rub it as this could press it further into the fibers.
02:40 Determine Washing Instructions
Determine how the fabric in question is usually washed. In other words, if they're available on a tag, follow the garment care instructions. Unique fabrics like silks and leathers will require specialty cleaners for any type of stain.
05:24 Phase I: Water-Soluble Stains
You will need a towel, a clean cloth, water, a spray bottle, eyedropper or cotton balls, liquid laundry detergent, hand soap, or stain remover, and, optionally, a soft brush like a toothbrush for instance.
06:40 Phase II: Non-Water-Soluble Stains
You will need a towel, a clean, dry cloth, an eyedropper or cotton ball, a jar, isopropyl alcohol, acetone, and a bleach alternative. To dissolve ink stains, we need to use a solvent, and the best of these is isopropyl or rubbing alcohol. In a pinch, though, you could also use hairspray, hand sanitizer, or even vodka.
08:20 Dedicated Ink Stain Removing Products
If the methods we've outlined here don't work, you can always turn to the pros - as in professional stain removal products.

How to dress well for brown skinned men
I have always wondered and how to remove ink stains from my clothes. Barely anyone I know uses fountain pens, so no one could give me advice. Luckily, the GG staff does, just as I do, so I can count on them to finally tell me the way to go!
Never in my life did I ever think I'd look up an ink stain removal video, but I just bought a new pair of cute pants and my clumsy self rolled a pen right over the thigh area!! Phase 1 was a pants saver!!! The ink literally dissolved in front of my eyes!! Thank you!!
As a professional tattoo artist, I do appreciate a stain removal video. It doesn't happen often but is a bummer when it does. I've had pretty good luck with fels-naptha bars, but need to be better about not pushing the ink deeper when scrambling to get it off

What you see is what you get. We don't believe in clickbait. You will find that our content is substantive and backed by research. Welcome to our channel!
Wow. I had a pair of pants with OLD dry stains of ink . I used Isopropyl Alcohol method and it removed it. Thanks so much . Never thought I would ever get it out!!!
This was SO helpful-I followed your directions and also used a jar and rubber band. Took a while but so relieved to have succeeded thanks to your expert, clear suggestions!
My dog got hold of a gel ink pen and decided to see how it tasted. Needless to say she had inked her new $200 bed your info saved the day, nothing left but clean doggie bed. Thankyou😂
TIP,: For small ink stains, like a pen line, use a cotton swab (ie Q-tip) dipped in your remover of choice. Limits spread and amount of remover used on fabric.
Thank you for the great information on removing ink stains. Preston, I like the new look!

It also depends on which ink did the stain. Some inks just don't come out of some fabrics.
Some fountain pens inks, like Noodler's Inks have an ink which is meant to permanently bind to paper, cotton, linen, etc.
I'd love to see a Gentleman's Gazette guide on wearing suspenders and how to deal with weight loss/gain and getting your garments adjusted. I think the later they probably have already approached in one or a few of their videos. Thanks for the amazing content!
Stay tuned!
Pulled out an antique quilt my MIL started to finish but could not before she passed. Someone used pen ink and what I think is black felt tip marker. I've put off working on it as I had no clue where to start cleaning w/o ruining the muslin. I'll start with the IPA first and go forward (holding my breath). Most informative video I've seen (several recommened bleach). Thank you.
As an avid fountain pen user, some water, Dawn dish soap, and the scrubbing side of a sponge will quickly remove most any ink from your hands.
You know u can use a titenkeller it's something Germans use when drawing it removes the ink
I owe you my life
@@baboyramonpopu7959 but isn’t only useful when the ink is still wet? 🤔 genuine & sincere question 🙏🏻
When my hands got dirty from ink I use a pumice stone under running water. This always did the job very well.
Thank you for this video. It is very helpful as I have some stains to remove from some cotton and silk fabrics. Thank you again!
That is a gorgeous watch, I love the script of the cardinal numbers!
Great to see you Preston! Looking good! Great tips! Thank you!
I've had good results with the old advice to use hairspray on ink stains, but those stains were the type you get from ballpoint pens, rollerballs, or fine-tipped markers. I've never tried it on the the monster-sized stains featured in this video. But I don't walk around with vintage (read 'leaky') fountain pens while wearing straw boater hats, either, so consider the source.
We have a product in Australia called Napisan which was created for washing babies dirty diapers. I've found that if you give just about any stain of any kind a good soaking spray of a pre-wash stain remover and let it soak in Napisan overnight then wash as usual, it will remove just about anything.
I used nail polish and it worked. Thanks for
the detailed video.
I have always used AmWay LOC on fountain pen inks with excellent results.
This is very useful hope you also do different types of Stains.
Used lava soap to remove the stains but this is helpful for the other stain removal options
Great opening line!
Thank you
I sometimes use a product called Folex, but, definitely test in an inconspicuous place first, as it may likely cause the fabric to fade.
Worst pen leak of my life this morning. It’s like y’all read my mind. I’m off to give your advice a try.
Success! Patient blotting with Amodex, followed by a long soak in non-chlorine oxy bleach, followed by a wash. Particularly gratifying given that it was an archival ink. It helped that the pants are mid-gray.
Preston you have your very own cool! Nice look.
Next video of this style please tell us how to fix oil stains or bleach stains!
Very Beneficial 👍🏻
Good video, useful information, thank you. Let's see whether it works!
Can you make a Video about a Classic Jabot Tie
You are actually looking better with the stubble and side parted hair. The stubble especially.
Amazing. Lemon salt worked best . After that rubbing liquid detergent. And well washed.
At last, an interesting video.
I rubbed with sanitizer & soap it didn't work instead somewhere It turns in yellow colour ,now how i remove both
Thank you , great video . Can you please do a video on the style of Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin
Tha k you I just set my pin on my bed and it stained the cover so fast I immediately searched and found your video I put 91%rubbing alcohol and detergent and it came right up THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
I actually found that rubbing alcohol gets out any ink stain. Whether being a sharpie or anything like that
Try clear DAWN dishwashing liquid and hair spray. Let sit for 5 minutes and wash.
Wow i never knew

Why a bleach alternative, rather than liquid bleach?
This is going to be one Quill of a comedy
@Gentleman'sGazette : Please consider doing a video on men's shorts and low cut shirts, and why "shorts" have become short, baggy pants, and low cut V neck shirts are out.
I'm old enough to remember when it was ( heterosexual ) to wear shorts that were 2 - 3 " above the knee, and see men with open, low cut shirts.
When did things change, and why ?
I could care less about it all, but just think it odd that while women are encouraged to wear super tight short - shorts and low cut shirts to show off cleavage, men are encouraged to wear shirts that are several sizes too large and stop at the pocket, as well as shorts that stop only three or for inches above the ankle.
Is it because being an overweight man is now considered the norm, while being an overweight woman is looked down on ?
I got a load of clothes in the dryer and didn't realize there was a pen in there
Same here it was a nightmare of a weekend
I spilled ink on my moms bed💀 and she is home I can’t just go around the house doing this I’m cooked
I was a gentleman, then after those stains, I became a fkn beast ahahaha
Weird, they didn't go into a history of removing ink from clothing and fabrics and showing how the times change from removing ink to putting it in for fashion,

What if you accidentally swallowed ink and now you're 💩 is blue, what do you do? Asking for a friend

How is your outfit not considered business casual
I thought the guy was Ai 😂
Hand sanitizer...thank me later. Quick and easy
Is he even real?
Just buy new pants
Wrong! The right way to remove ink stains is to never get them in the first place by not using 200-yearold inconvenient and cumbersome writing technology.
But seriously - a water-tight pencase or pocket protector goes a long way.
gonna try the acetone later.
my 99% isopropyl did nothing on the ink stain.
Totally incorrect. Simply soak the garment ( as long as you are able) in. 10l pail overnight. Soaking in full cream milk. The ink will be totally gone the next morning. Then wash with cold water in a machine as usual
