Hairspray often contains shellac or other paint-like chemicals. It may cause streaking that could be very difficult to remove that from the non-glossy kindle screen.

How about removing the ink with some "ink remover" (a solvent designed specifically for that task) from an office supply store? Also, I would blot it rather than wiping it, if possible.

Although you do not want to get it on the plastic bezel, acetone (also in some finger-nail polish remover) should work. Use a very small amount (like the tip of a toothpick) only after testing it on a corner of the display first.

And depending on the ink, I have successfully used a "permanent" marker over the ink followed by a quick wipe to remove both inks, and clean off any residue with alcohol.
