Stain removal
I am having a nightmare getting ink pen stains out of my sons school shirt, in the UK a stain devil would have worked without any problem but I can't seem to find them in Aus, I have tried Napisan and Sard and neither work, has anyone got any ideas?

I boght a little oblong yellow block ( can't remember the name ) from Mitre 10 stacked in boxes on the cash desk, was $2 and I find it works on most things. Goodluck

Re: Stain removal
Household ammonia usually gets out ink stains. I know I have seen my wife use in our our eldest's school shirts.

Re: Stain removal
You might get a good result with oil of eucalyptus - use a couple of drops neat. It's a very effective stain remover and I've got ink out with it on more than one occasion.
