How Do You Remove Ball Point Pen Ink From A Vinyl Doll (American Girl Doll Or Barbie Types)?
Has a younger sibling drawn on your daughter’s expensive American Girl doll’s face, hands or legs? Have your daughter’s Barbies been “beautified” by her, her friends or other unknown parties? Scrubbing won’t work, Clorox won’t work, hairspray won’t work to remove those ball point pen marks. You can send the dolls to a doll hospital, leave them marked forever, or pony up for new dolls (gasp!). Or, you can easily remove the ink yourself in hours. Wipe any residue of other attempted cleanings from the vinyl skin surface. Remove the doll’s clothes, which could be accidentally bleached by the removal process. Apply a thick paste of benzoyl peroxide acne ointment to the ball point pen marks. Turn on the desk light/light source and adjust the lamp so that the light source is shining directly on the covered pen marks at a distance of about 5-6 inches. Be sure no doll hair or other doll part is in contact with the light source, or within four inches. Leave the light shining on the mark for seve
