Hello, everyone!
My precious Bouquet has some unidentified pale orange markings. She was in the box for many years (body was not in contact with her hair) and I discovered these spots a few days ago. From your experience ... are discolorations caused by bleeding hair? or age spots?
Do you think they can be removed? :shocked: :shocked:

Could be either, really, but the shape looks like hair to me; if her hair wasn't in contact, perhaps she had them before and you just didn't notice? I'd try a Magic Eraser or other melamine sponge (such as a "Miracle Cleaning Eraser" I'm pretty sure comes from Dollar Tree); if that doesn't work, I'd cover her eyes, symbols, blush, and hair, slather her in hydrogen peroxide cream, and let her get some sun. I'm pretty sure Bouquet can sunburn, so I wouldn't omit the cream, which helps not only prevent sunburn, but reverse it as well. You could also dunk her hair in some vinegar to seal in the color, but I don't know what that'd do to the texture.

Echoing this looks like hair bleeding. Age spots tend to be browner.

Thanks for your opinions and advice! You are wonderful :hifive:
Magic erasers don't work but I'll try with sun-light fading.
