Quote from: FantasticFirefly on March 10, 2016, 04:40:27 PMOMG- thank you I thought I happily forgot about the stink, I think I got one application on my tests. I bought a sample of the stuff from another collector and the SMELL. The other scary thing is it was advertised as formulated for dolls and toys. grrrr. so people using it thinking it's made for this, I can totally totally see.I think the problem is more that they don't specify what kind of toys and dolls it's formulated for. I recently got into Dollfie Dream and Obitsu dolls, and Removezit(and acne cream) are the go-to stain treatment solutions for them. And that's because the vinyl that those dolls are made of do respond positively to these things. Using the Oxy10 method(acne cream), on one of those dolls took off even sharpie with ease and absolutely no damage(beginner mistakes were made...) and that's usually how it goes. So I'm guessing that's probably where the suggestions come from?

Now I know what my Daffodil is suffering from. I got her a few years ago from Sweden, and she was perfect. Shortly after, in my humid environment, some yellow spots on her back developed. I haven't checked on her in a long time, and just today I picked her up, and under the yellow spots there are some pen marks appearing .... It looks so ugly. Thankfully it's only on her NDS and back, but still. I'm scared what other ponies in my collection back home have been developing ...
I've never seen this before. Now I'm curious. I wonder how regrind would respond to acne cream? Or if someone were to put it on a whole pony's body, would it go entirely, evenly white? These are things I would never do as the potential for transfer to other ponies is scary, but now my curiosity's going...
I don't have a problem making a pony look more 'pretty' in 'short term' as I would rather already enjoy my toys in the current times especially when I still have a huge interest in them, not as 'collector vanity' to make something look 'perfect', especially since many MLPs are quite old and will eventually succumb to aging anyway.

I've read that the acne cream is only recommended for things colored with a solid pigment, rather than a dye like the ponies are.

I think it depends on the color of the ponyHere's a site with the info, go to the Creams section: http://www.mlppreservationproject.com/body.html#StainRemovalIt says you can use it on yellow and orange ponies and sometimes pink and white depending on the pony itself, but avoid on green, blue, or purple ones
