Today at school, I was printing something on t-shirts using the silk screen method with black ink.
Unfortunately some ink (it was more like water and ink, because i was rinsing the screen) got on my white cotton shirt.

Does anyone know how i could remove the stains?
Thank You

    You can try rubbing alcohol take 1/2 cup of alcohol and 1/4th cup of water and put a few folded paper towels underneath the stain and pour the solution on it let it set for 10 Min’s and then add a few drops of dish detergent and gently rub around the stain and rinse, it might have to be done again.

    Try hair spray, what ever you use do not DRY the shirt until the stain is gone. If it is all white you can mix 1/2 cup bleach, 1/4 cup elec. dish washer soap, cover with hot water until dish washer granules are melted, add shirt and soak, worry around a bit. Rinse well and take a look if the stain is gone throw the shirt in the washer.
