Ball point pen ink on Alpaca

One of my wonderful children has written on the alpaca glovebox in ballpoint pen - any ideas on getting it off? 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten
2009 Alaska TDV8 - Gone and much missed.

Surprised you've never had to do this before VA

I've removed ballpoint with those isopropyl alcohol wipes before now, but you need to be quick. A colleague of mine's wife runs a cleaning firm apparently and her idea is to use hairspray or deodorant but it must have alcohol in it, which is why the wipes work I suppose....

Don't see why not... seems to be alcohol that does what it needs to.

Why have you got a bottle of vodka in the car?

What you do on your "vinyl medical chairs" is your own business, what about getting rid of VA's ballpoint ink!

Honest give it a try, alcohol almost certainly won't shift it,try Baby Oil and if it doesn't work at least you can have some fun with it up the OXO Tower

These are the chairs I sell to hospitals:
