Can someone kindly direct me to a glueing tutorial for TPE dolls. Ty has some work to be done on her and I'd like to be sure I am helping her and not hurting her.

Here's link to TDF's maintenance area. viewforum.php?f=229

Also, Indigo's TPE repair kit http://us.dollstudio.org/products/acces ... repair-kit

Please first reach out to others on this forum that have experience in the repair process as I have no experience performing the repair. My understanding is that the chemical composition of doll's TPE differs for each manufacturer, hence so may the repair process. Depending on the severity of the repair, you may also need to apply heat to melt the TPE (don't breath fumes). Good luck getting her back to health. :)

Less or more with the glue. Clean the area, and use a q tip with a little bit of glue for the area. You might need to use plastic wrap to close the area if needed.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction. Also, I wanted to grab a repair kit but couldn't figure where to go, thank you, bobbydoll.

Depending on what the repair is, you can use a heating iron/soldering iron to fix the damage.
