You know the back of my mini was full of ink marks and after I sprayed the front, all were gone from the back. My question is, do you think WD-40 would work better from the wrong side of the soiled area? I still have marks remaining on the front to remove. It's worth considering.

I knew the WD-40 would work!!!!
I was so amazed whe n I saw the stain lift out before my eyes.....
A good soaking and wasing in baking soda or viniger wil help the smell out....( how to spell viniger??)

Take a pic of it when the ink is all gone... I have hope for you.. .and the quiti quilt
I had a carpet cleaner tell me this when I asked him what was he using in the can that was covered with duct tape.... and also from the auto store, an engine cleaning product you spray on and rinse it quicklie... Yes, that was the 2 products he had tapped with the duct tape....I was so surprised and now when I have a stain I use it and it works!!!Especially if it is a petrolium based ink!! just try a small spot first... its worth a try than having to rid the quilt....
