Removing marker from dolls?

[robin0850]

I've had some success with Oxy10, but it takes at least a couple of weeks and a LOT of patience for pink marker--it probably used to be red, and that's the toughest color to remove. [img]frown.gif[/img]

Hope this helps, and good luck! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rainbow.gif[/img]

Do they make an oxy 10 stick? What one do I get?

The fresher the ink is, the easier and sooner it comes off--for old ink stains, that means lots of patience! [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

I get the Oxy10 lotion in a small bottle--about $4, but it should last a long, long time.

I cover the ink stain with lotion, and the put a small piece of plastic wrap over it--this is supposed to keep it from drying out so fast, and thus able to sink in and bleach out the stain for a longer time. Then, place the doll under a desk lamp (about a 60-watt bulb, and about 3 or 4 inches away) --the light helps to activate the bleach in the lotion.
Remember to protect your doll's hair --the light and heat from the lamp can contribute to dryness, which makes it prone to (gasp) frizz!

And once again--Good Luck! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rainbow.gif[/img]

I am cleaning up a WB kirsten and have tried magic eraser with no luck. I have some remove zit that I am now trying, but wondering if anyone has had any luck at removing marker? Its hot pink and all over her face! :/ Im sure Ill be doing a little touch up painting on her eyebrows and places where the bleach from this stuff fades, but anyone had any luck with any other products? Thanks
