Need cleaning advice for my latest thrift find...
« on: September 04, 2012, 03:23:11 PM »
I wasn't sure if this belonged in Off Topic or the Dollhouse; I apologize if I misplaced it.

Anyway, I need some advice on how to clean this Kid Sister doll I found today. Her head and shoes have a weird, kinda sticky feel to them. I think the stickyness might be from cigarette smoke. Any ideas on how to clean it?

I thought maybe putting her in the washing machine, as she's got some stains on her hands, but her face and hair are really in great shape and I don't want to do anything to damage it.

Put her in the sink and use a toothbrush and dishwashing soap. She should turn out fine.

Yeah, I would think that should would too. I'm not sure the washer would be safe.
