Why does staining occur?
All companies face this dilemma when dealing with vinyl because vinyl is a porous material and will absorb dyes used in many fabrics based on the depth and/or darkness of the color (as more dye is used to set such a color). At the Tonner Doll Company, we use every attempt to minimize staining by lining outfits in lighter colors or by using white or pale thread (another of the worst culprits) in areas that come into contact with the body. Even in these instances, only time can tell if the attempts actually worked.
