How to erase ink from a paper
Use brake fluid to remove pen ink from the sheet of paper easily.
Most nail polish remover is made of acetone, and this can be used to remove ink from paper. Apply a small amount of acetone to a cotton swab, and rub into the ink you're trying to erase.
This works best on regular ballpoint pen ink. Blue ink is more easily erased than black ink.
