Thanks Von,von_Shredhead wrote:Nice glue-up job Mr. Smith!! Excellent idea on the quik-fix on the toe, too! I did that on 'Tator's injection ports after trimming 'em pretty flush ... not a good idea BTW ... doll had no where for the air to escape when squeezed ... skin pulls from the foam ... Oops.
I wish I knew of a way to remove these stains ... you have tried every method I have and have had the same results. TIP : DO NOT use bleach ... I tried this and the bleach grabbed every little bit of iron in my water and stained the skin something terrible ... have all kinds of dark, rusty stripes where the bleach/water/soap solution was used. Cannot get 'em out.
I wonder what would happen if one were to place the doll in direct sunlight ... like give her a "tanning session" so to speak ... if it would be even or end up blotchy? Mike/Ron??
Well Mr Smith, Project Jessica is getting off to a great start! May she live long and prosper!
Cheers,
Von
I'm not entirely happy with the quick-fix on her toe. The reconstruction is actually pretty poor, but at least the foam in covered for now. This is likely to be a temporary measure until I can come up with something better.
As far as cleaning her I have come to the conclusion that she may never really be clean . I have not tried bleach directly but have tried some household cleaners with bleach alternative. Didn't help. Anyway, the grime is sort of ground into the skin, I doubt that there is anyway I'll every get it all so will just keep doing the best I can.
