However, if that highlighter pen should drop or if it gets into the hands of a small child, you could end up with a stain on your leather item. The removal of this stain could require implementing a few strategies.
Things You Will Need
-
Press a tissue against the highlighter pen stain on the leather, if it just happened, to lift as much of the ink as you can.
-
Mix a few teaspoons of a mild soap with several cups of warm water. Adding the soap while you fill the container will create bubbles.
-
Scoop up the bubbles with a cloth and gently dab the surface of the leather. Continue to dab to remove more of the stain. Let the leather dry.
-
Fill a small bowl with isopropyl alcohol. Place a few cotton balls in the alcohol to soak.
-
Remove one of the cotton balls and scrub the highlighter pen stain in small circular motions. Once that cotton ball is covered in ink, use a new one.
-
Wipe off the alcohol with a damp cloth and let the leather surface dry.
