I second the Hairspray suggestion....honestly, it really works!
Its the alcohol too, along with the solvents which make it easy to remove.
Honestly - just spray it on and wipe it off......simple as... x

hairspray works well - so do some babywipes, and ordinary soap on a flannel! a lot depends on the finish of the leather and/or the type of ink. but if one doesnt work try another method!0

A friend of mine had a cream leather sofa and her 3 yr old decided she wanted to turn it blue and promptly coloured it in! Hubby spoke to someone at work and they suggested hairspray too- it came off a treat and they didnt need to go and buy a new sofa!Mummy to the most amazing and clever little girl x0

I had a search on the sticky index but it isnt mentioned. My lovely toddlers inked biro on my off green leather suite. Ive used a spray cleaner called wizz for leather . Its faded the ink but its still there. Does anyone know how to remove it please?Mad Mum to 3 wonderful children, 2 foster kittens and 2 big fat cats that never made it to a new home!

If you decide to try any of these, test on an unseen bit first.

Hi ya ,
I have a cream leather suite which managed to get blue biro marks on .... i sprayed some hairspray onto a clean white rag and rubbed the marks off .... They came off really easily ....
As your suite is green i would do as " Badrick " suggests and try it first on a part that is not seen ...
