restoring aged and discolored blue pony?

[kaninchen]

i've gotten it into my head that i would like to restore my childhood moonstone. she is baity as bait can be, but i love her anyway. i've scoured washed and scrubbed her with a mr clean eraser. but she's not very blue. she's a very dingy greytanblue with darker tan places. not cancer, just discolouration. is there any way to restore her original colour?

Sunfading, maybe? I just posted about this: http://mlparena.com/mlp/index.php?topic=298504.0

definitely giving this a try. she couldn't come out any worse than she is!

I'd suggest a trip in some h202. It can do wonders for discoloration. However, this process does have its downside... glittery symbols will have less glitter or no glitter afterwards...

Its going to depend on what the discolouration is - if its yellowing with age then maybe sunfading would work - Elistos recent post and the change she had with her LS is really impressive. But if the greying is ageing then there may not be much you can do to bring mack her "blue" although she is more of a grey blue than outright blue originally anyway.

The sticky thread at the top of the Corral has some great restoration tutorial links and the link below is really thorough about how to sunfade.
