Cleaning Majesty?

[Bebopgroove]

So I have a Majesty who looks good aside from some dirt around her symbols...

It's hard to see it in the pics, but there is some faint dirt around her symbols that are easily noticeable in person :/ Also, how might I go about touching up the glitter?

Have you tried the magic eraser? Just don't rub too hard around her symbols

If that does not help, then an oxyclean soak might help

[Bebopgroove]

Would the oxyclean remove her symbols, though? >.<

And don't they offer Magic Eraser as a pen? I forgot about those.. *is tired*

I've never had any issues with an oxy soak messing up symbols

The magic eraser does not come as a pen, it's like a sponge. Just be gentile with it and keep it pretty wet. If you use all your might with it, it will damage the paint.

Ah ok. I might try that then

Oxyclean sounds familiar...

*digs inside pony bag*

Oh look.. I have unopened oxyclean!

With the oxyclean, I normally use hot tap water, disolve the powder and then let it cool to warm. Once it's warm, submerge the pony (I take the head off if I can) and let it soak for a while.

When the pony comes out of the bath, rinse her well and use conditioner on her hair.

You can also use an old toothbrush to scrub the pony with the solution, just be gentile around her glitter in her symbols. You can scrub as hard as you want around feet and such.

More glitter can be added with clear glue like superglue and nail glitter because it's really fine

Oh neat idea!

OL1s advise is fantastic - as she says just be super careful with the eraser around the symbols better to be too cautious than have to touch up as you ll struggle for an exact match.
