    Ball Point Pen from Vinyl Dashboard

    This question was submitted from Mark H.

    “I got a ball point pen mark on the vinyl dash of my car. How I can get this off as I have tried everything I know?”

    The quick answer for removing ink is rubbing alcohol or some kind of general purpose solvent.

    Solvent can be harsh on some surfaces, but are generally ok on vinyl. Test a small area first.

    Do not apply the solvent directly onto the dash. Apply a small amount on a q-tip or cotton ball and gentle wipe the ink.

    You will have to re-polish the dash since the solvent will remove some of the shine.
