Who's a dirty pony? (orange mark on G3?)
« on: April 02, 2012, 04:07:59 PM »
So, I found Hidden Treasure at Savers, and she may be one of the dirtiest ponies I've ever had the pleasure of owning. Mostly it was blue marker all over her-- even in her hair!

I gave her a trip to the pony spa, and she looks like a different pony, apart from the slight hair trims. However, she has these odd orange marks on her nose and her NDS flank. Anyone seen anything like this?

Whatever it is, Hidden Treasure looks a lot happier now!

WOW what a difference! She's gorgeous!
I really don't know what the orange spots would be :O but I would maybe try sunfading, like, a wing or so and just see how that goes ^^

It looks like a plastic issue to me, personally. Is the plastic harder than usual? Maybe she lost some plasticizer (there's no way that's spelled correctly, lol).

It doesn't look fixable but I actually think it's cute :blush:

Also, I can't believe all that blue ink (?) came off!! Did you just use soap and water?

Dish detergent all over. :) But I took a magic eraser to the tougher spots. Worked a dream! She's a lucky girl. The orange spots don't feel unusual, and the bright light I shot the photos by really highlights them. In normal light you really have to strain to see them at all.

I have some yellow-orange streaks on a white G3 that I have been unable to lessen as well.  It doesn't -seem- like plastic breakdown and I don't know if sunfading would help.  I've tried all sorts of stuff, even the highly recommended Magic eraser and it ain't coming out.  I'll be interested to hear any replies!

It kind of reminds me of the stains spaghetti sauce can leave on plastic- though the spots are not greasy at all, of course.

Yep, I'm happy with her! I also found Beachberry and Blossomforth with her; I assume they were owned by the same person. They were all quite dirty and all three have tail trims!
