Milk tho is a s0d to get out of car seats - I spilt some on the back seat of our old Ford Escort - never did get it out properly despite trying - it seems to get into the foam - and that summer - boy did it hum......

Many thanks guys!!!!

Just pinched one of SWMBO's face wipe thingys - similar to baby wipes - and it got the biro lines off a treat.

Brand was "Simple" - available from Boots, Lloyds etc.

Could not believe how well they worked. Plus they actually brought the Alcantara up well - which was bit of a result.

Sincere thanks for all the input - I really thought I had a severe problem as I thought Biro was kind of permanent - so if it happens to anyone else - Don't panic!!!!!!! - Grab some Baby Wipes / Face Wipes.

Milk has been used since the 1960's to remove ballpoint pen ink from vinyl furniture, being waterproof the same problems of removing the milk don't apply.
