If you happen to notice that your favorite pair of jeans — the one that fits perfectly in all the right places — has an ink stain, don't panic. In this situation, isopropyl alcohol and table salt will be your best friends.
First, you'll want to grab a paper towel to blot out any extra ink. For denim, make sure to dab at the stain, rather than rub, just to make sure you don't rub any of the ink deeper into the fabric.
Next, you'll want to grab the salt. Sprinkle it generously over the stained area, then dab at it with a wet paper towel. Sweep off the excess salt, and repeat the process until there is no more ink appearing on the blotted salt and paper towel.
Once you've finished the salting process, lay out extra paper towels underneath the fabric, and grab the isopropyl alcohol. Add a couple of drops to the stain, and grab a cotton swab or toothbrush and scrub it into the ink. Once the splotch is gone, run the denim under cold water, and throw your jeans in the wash on a cold cycle.
Once you've finished, let them air-dry, and the ink should be completely gone.
