Post subject:  Can this ink be removed?

This is related to that vintage 7" Marusan Viras question that I posted under the "Marusan and Nitto Question???" topic. This same figure has what seems to be blue pen ink on its face but I am not sure if it can be removed. The head is somewhat loose but the ink is the bigger problem to me. I do not have the figure but was sent pictures of the marks so I put it to you....Is there a safe way to remove that ink? Whether or not I add it to my collection depends on the answer. Please let me know and thank you.

The best way to remove blue ink is by carefully writing over it with black ink.

The mister clean magic eraser worked for me before to take off ink. Just test it first so you know it isn't taking off paint or anythin else.

That sounds good...and I looked it up online. It does state that it is good for removing pen marks....but I am not sure about using it on vintage vinyl figures. Has anyone else had any luck with that "Magic Eraser" on their vinyls?

In order from least to most invasive stain/dirt removal from vinyl:
(in my opinion)

1- Compressed Air
2- Water
3- Add Soap
3- Rubbing Alcohol
4- Magic Eraser
5- Acetone
6- More Acetone
7- Bolt Cutters
8- Fire
