Hey everyone!
Sorry if I am missing this somewhere, but I can't seem to find a centralized thread for cleaning/restoring ponies? I remember a link on the archived site with a few threads with different cleaning techniques, and these were invaluable to me as I started out collecting. I'm still no pro, and would love it if we had a centralized thread or even a forum for cleaning questions and help, etc.

Thanks!
Denise

USE LIQUID SOAP ON G3 PONYVILLES!
My blossomforths blue eye paint seeped into her eye outline, and washed some of her hair paint off.
Any tips on removing stains for g3 ponyvilles? My skywishes has a bright yellow stain down her leg(wont show up in pics), my sweetie-belle has a bright pink highlighter mark(that Im keeping because I have two and need to seperate them) and my cupcake has two weird red dots on her hoof that looks oddly like regrind.. but she's a light pink so I have no idea..
ETA: I don't have acetone, nail polish remover, dawn dish, mr clean magic erasers and lots of other recomended things.

What's a good way to remove pen marks on my Sky Skimmer? (I hope this is the right place to ask this)

Sunfading is the best way to get rid of pen marks.  Ask Relcelestia (she's on the Nirvana boards a lot) for advice on how to sunfade, she is the sun-goddess:)

It would be awesome to start one here! :D

I have a question, but if it's in the wrong place I can edit it out. ^^;

I have a Skyflier with pin dot/smooze on her horn and her face near her blush, is there any way for me to get it out? I don't want to break her horn or scratch all the paint on her face off scrubbing.
