If it was a large area, you can fill a small bowl with warm water and a few drops of soap. This way, you can keep re-wetting the cloth as you work without having to return to the faucet.<refhttp://www.housecleaningcentral.com/en/cleaning-tips/stain-removal/removing-ink-stains.html</ref> If you are cleaning a dish or a plate, you can clean it as usual by hand or by running it through the dishwasher. To remove whatever you used to clean the stain as well as any remaining pigment, rub the area until it’s totally clean with the wet, soapy cloth. Keep the cloth wet and rinse it often, if needed. To ensure one last time that all trace amounts of ink were removed, use a white cloth to dry the area. Then, inspect the cloth to make sure it does not have any ink on it. If you see any color on the rag, there are still trace amounts of ink that you missed and you should clean the area again. If it looks clean, then you are done.

What is a summary?
Wipe away any residue from cleaning using the soapy cloth. Dry the area with a clean white cloth or rag.
