She has a few ink marks. I don't want to sunfade her, any other options?


Thanks in advance !

You could possibly use a 10% benzol peroxide acne cream, like Oxy 10 or something, to get the ink stains out. Just glob on a thick layer over the ink marks, let her sit under a lamp for a couple of days & wipe the cream off. It should take the marks right off. I've use that method to get ink & lipstick off orange, pink & white ponies with no ill effects.

Doesn't that leave bleached-out stains over time? Or am I thinking of something else?

Why don't you want to sunfade? I think it should work OK on her (I need to post some pictures of a Bow Tie I've been fading...her body color's still intact if that's what you're worried about)

Sorry, sunfading is your best bet. Trying the cream would be a huge risk and if it harmed her color it would make the pony worse, not better. Those marks look like they would come out within a few days.

Hmmm... I've used benzol peroxide on other vinyl toys/dolls for years and it's never bleached out anything. I didn't know it was a risk with ponies. Well, now I know; and knowing is half the battle!

Thanks guys ! I am just afraid of what might happen, as the sun kinda destroys the plastic xD I know, it takes a lot of time, but still. I might still try something else if I ever find something that works But thanks anyway !

The rest of her should be covered with aluminum foil so that only the pen marks are exposed to the sun.  Won't hurt her a bit.  ^-^

I've sunfaded lots of ponies...it really doesn't hurt the plastic as far as I can tell. One person here even restored a pony that had been left outside for over a year. Of all the problems it had, I don't remember her mentioning the plastic being damaged.

Sunfading is your only option really...  peroxide cream and zit cream bleach their color out.

If you search there are TONS of sunfading threads-with amazing results. You only really need to avoid fading certain white ponies and if you follow the tips that have already been mentioned you'll get a better looking pony!

Oh yes...I would go with everyones comments...acne cream really does risk some issues!

I would stick with sun fading..Rels tutorial is fantastic
