Ink from lacquer?

Does anyone have a recipe to remove ink from the surface of lacquer. My 15
month old son made some not so nice art work on my coffee table. Pledge
didn't work.

Thanks

No. Just a regular ball-point pen.

Look on the bright side: Someday when your boy is world famous, that coffee
table's gonna be worth a lot of money. You'll be able to charge admission to
see it.

If all else fails, carefully sand out the damage with 400 or 600 grit,
spot-spray over the area with a spray can of Deft, then buff and polish.

My guess would be that, fifteen month old's actions being universal, he had
to bear down quite a bit to get the marks to take and you are looking at
depressions with the ink down in it rather then sitting on the normally
smooth top surface.

Try a soft tooth brush and some paste wax and see what happens. If that
works all you are left with is the dug in marks from the pen. Lucky you.

Good luck
