My son dropped some ink in the microfiber sofa.. I tried to clean it with water but damn stain got bigger. Help!
Blot the stain with some rubbing alcohol.=)
Try soaking a cotton pad with rubbing alcohol and try to rub the black one off. The red ink is going to be a problem. You may be able to use the same thing, but try it in the least conspicuous place first. You may want to call in a professional upholstery cleaner. It would probably be worth the price.
Try Shout or any laundry stain remover. Don't scrub but blot with an old towel. If you have access to a carpet shampoo machine that sucks up the water, use that to rinse the product and the ink out. Be sure to let the stain remover work for a bit before you start blotting it up. Those products take a bit of time to work. Another product I use is Oops! It's made by the same company that makes Goo Gone, the stuff that removes label/sticker adhesive. Oops! is for removing paint splatters but I've found it works great on ink and marker too. It's got a funny smell but doesn't bleach or stain most fabrics. Try it on a hidden place before you use it on the part of the sofa with the stain. And leave it lay and work for a good 10-15 minutes before you remove it. And it might take several applications before you get it all out. Lowe's or Home Depot should have Oops! My son had a pen break in his bedroom and got ink all over his carpet. Between the Shout on the smaller spots and the Oops! on the big one, I got it all out. And I have used it to get red colored drink stains out of a white cotton sweat shirt and marker off nylon jackets.
