Abstract
A case involving two stain removers and a paint remover to eradicate inks on checks led to an evaluation of the effect of these and some other traditional ink eradicating products on removing ink. Thirteen products were tested on fourteen inks applied to both regular white paper and to four bank's checks. The effect of the eradicating products on the background print of these checks was also noted.
