Using Rubbing Alcohol

Rubbing alcohol is one of the most effective and least expensive products you can use to tackle an ink stain on rayon. Blot the stained area with a cloth soaked in rubbing alcohol, then rinse with cold water and launder as usual. In some cases, you may need to repeat this process more than once.

Removing the Stain with a Heat Gun

Using a heat gun is another way to try and remove an ink stain from rayon. Keep the heat gun moving constantly, and make sure to keep it far enough away that you don't burn the fabric. Once stain is removed, launder as usual.

Using a Dry-Cleaning Solution

If all else fails, you can try using a dry-cleaning solution to remove the ink stain from the rayon. Test a small area first to ensure it doesn’t cause any discoloration or damage to the fabric. If all goes well, soak the entire stained area in the solution, then rinse with cold water and launder as usual.

Preventing Future Stains

There are a few things you can do to help prevent ink stains on rayon fabric in the future. Always be careful when handling ink pens, pens with permanent ink, or markers near your clothing. If possible, try to avoid wearing rayon around these items as much as possible. Additionally, keep a bottle of rubbing alcohol handy just in case of accidents.
