If you’ve ever had to remove permanent marker from leather car seats, you know it’s not an easy task. The ink is stubborn and often doesn’t come out completely. Here are four tips for removing permanent marker from leather car seats:

  1. Use a solvent. Many solvents work well on permanent marker, including acetone, lacquer thinner, and mineral spirits. Just be sure to use a solvent that is safe for leather and your skin.
  2. Use a scrubber. If the solvent doesn’t work, try using a scrubber to remove the marker. A scrubber is like a sponge with bristles on it. Just wet the scrubber and apply pressure to the marker until it comes off easily.
  3. Use a cleaner and dryer combo. If the marker still won’t come off, try using a cleaner and dryer combo to clean the seat and then apply more of the solvent or scrubber as needed.
  4. Try boiling water or lemon juice. If all else fails, try boiling water or lemon juice to clean the seat and then apply more of the solvent or scrubber as needed ..
