7) Before anybody else asks, that's what happens when you leave an ink pen in your clothes and run it through the dryer. Yes, it's a pure bitch to get out.
SDH - out of the dryer drum? I tried that along with all the new miracle cleaners and abrasives that my ex went down and bought. I ended up using sandpaper to get that shit out. I should've done that to begin with instead of wasting 4 hours.
Out of shirts. I suppose it would work on the dryer drum as well. Acetone would probably work too. When I first started working we wore tan shirts. I had a bad habit of putting my pen back in my pocket without the cap. One of the girls told me to use hairspray to get it out. Works better than anything else I've seen.
#1 happened to my next door neighbor during the October snowstorm in 2011. Not only did one part of the branch pierce his windshield, one end put a nice crease in the roof of his truck, the other end creamed the hood. He also had water damage to the interior, as the branch stub that pierced the windshield leaked a whole bunch of melting snow into the interior.
I figured I was going to get questions about it and meant to post the explanation with the picture, but forgot - until people started asking about it. I can't bitch about being reminded.
Lampposts are, by law,installed to fail under minimal strain. The people who understand the odds that they will wind up as Lamppost decorations have decided.

ReplyDeleteYou too? I ran mine through with a load of light colored work shirts.

Hairspray will get the ink out. Even after going through the dryer.

If your ink pen gets wet, put it on a windowsill- in the sun. It will dry out just fine.
