Title: Best way to clean ponies and etc?
Post by: Water Lily on November 20, 2017, 04:41:14 PM
I was wondering if everypony wouldnt mind sharing the best things to clean your ponies and toys like such as pretty kitties, moon dreamers etc?  Both hair and body cleaners please?

I would suggest this website. It is a good base.

But, do NEVER use acne cream on you ponies. It will fade any coat color and spread to other ponies who come in contact. It just takes years, but it will happen. Never use acne cream under any circumstances.

If you're asking for specific products, Dawn dish soap seems to be the most popular choice for body cleaning. Any shampoo or conditioner is good, too.

Thanks Rose, thats the site I was searching for! Tailrust, Thanks for the suggestion! I actually used dawn and baking soda which helped with the dirt etc but one still has marker on her back paw and one has a pen mark on her face.

For pen mark, use "Magic eraser". I have no idea what it is, but it's liked in here. I personally use acetone-free nail polish remover with a cue tip, it does the job. But I have to warn you : For both options, DON'T use them on any pony markings, it will erase them. Use with precaution.
And while I'm at it, for "Twinkle Eyed" ponies, don't use any chemicals, it will damage their very fragile iridescent eyes. Read carefully this topic for more detailed information : http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,389055.0.html

In my experience, toothpaste is wonderful for tail rust. Otherwise I use a mild detergent and some warm water with a soft sponge to clean their bodies and shampoo and conditioner on their hair. Hope that helps  :)
