Pencil Stains

Removing Pencil Stains

By Sarah Aguirre, About.com

Pencil stains are fairly easy to remove.

First try erasing them. Gently erase the pencil stain and chances are most if not all of the stain will disappear.

Next apply a stain remover stick, gel, or spray to the stained area.

Wash according to the fabric directions.
