I got into my car this AM and noticed ink stains on the passenger seat.
I first tried to use a soft engineering pencil eraser. No luck. It perhaps faded the ink 10% and left a dual-shaded area.
Then I drove to store and bought isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and cotton balls. This has always had good results for me, but keep reading.
I soaked a ball, rubbed in the direction of the stain until it was gone.
Discard ball, get a fresh one, and do the next one.
When I was done, the ink was gone, but the grain of the leather started to get 'fuzzy'.
I drove home to get the Jaguar Leather Cleaner to see if it would help. It improved a bit, but it's not perfect. It's still a bit fuzzy.
Lighting was different in both pics. One was LED interior lighting, the other was overcast sunlight:
