there is onely one stain remover that I use, and it actually got out paint from the subway........hope it works for you as well.
its called CARBONA stain remover, and I get it in a roll on form. in brooklyn, I get it from variety store on ave m between ocean and east 19th.
good luck!

I don't know about red ink, but hairspray works on blue or black ink, give it a try, nothing to lose.

nothing is forever, even robes . . now you have a shmattah robe to clean in, if nothing else.

alcohol and oxi clean. both do wonders.

alcohol and oxi clean I have in the house.... will try those and just pray!
They were new robes I bought right before giving birth now and they are both very comfortable, and what I lived in those first few weeks postpartum.

Let's hope........................ Exclamation

Hairspray- I also found it to work. Spray, rub, spray, let it sit, wash, etc...

put some paper towels under the stain inside the clothes, and spray with hairspray until the ink is completely out. then wash as usual. hairspray also removes permanent marker from hard surfaces. good luck.

One of my kids scribbled pen on my nice white cotton table cloth. I used alchohol to get it out. It took time for the alchohol to work but it worked.
