No, but always make sure that you wash new jeans a couple of times to remove the excess dye, before wearing them.

You could always turn the cushions over. icon_cool.gif

a lot of scrubbing with vanish will take out permanent marker from fabric without destroying the color of the fabric in my experiance.

you could also try cleaning with white spirit but this will make quite a smell thats likely to linger for a day or so and should definately be tested on an inconspicuous area first.

How about wearing white jeans and sitting in the same spot, would this do the trick? icon_cool.gif

carpet and upholstery cleaning companies are usually your best bet, although when i was in the biz cream / yellow suites with jean stains were one of the few jobs with no results. Why do people prefer cream suites, cream carpets etc etc, its the showhome lifestyle !!
