Hi everyone,
I recently received 2 ponies that need some extra TLC, and I hope someone can answer my questions before I start tackling the issues.
I purchased an SS G1 Truly, but her flocking was dirtier than I realized. I gave her a good cleaning but didn't notice much difference. Given this and how loose the flocking was, I decided to deflock her. Here is how she currently looks (head hasn’t been deflocked yet, and some glue still on symbols):
Turns out she’s more yellowish-white than white under all that flocking. I’m thinking of sunfading her, but as I understand it some ponies aren’t safe to sunfade. I can’t find any info about Truly specifically; does anyone have any experience fading her, or any input? If I shouldn’t fade her, what are my options? I’ve read about hydrogen peroxide baths but worry that will damage her mane.
My other new pony is in better shape but has blue pen marks on her back legs.
Acetone and Magic Erasers won’t remove it, and I read somewhere that sunfading can be damaging for pink and purple ponies. Anyone have experience with this, or other suggestions for removing the marks?
Thank you!
