Removing stain from platinum silicone

Post by RubberPete »

Hey all,

I tried to search but didn't find quickly any topics about my problem :(

I bought a Patrice Catanzaro Sweety catsuit for my Chlea and put it on her. After few days I notice that silicone is getting colour from the catsuit and now almost all her body is blueish. Please anyone, if you have any idea what's the best method to remove stains what has been caused by black dye from clothes, I really would appreciate it!!! Thanks in advance...

In most cases, the better way to remove these types of stains is simply to let the silicone do the work itself... Silicone have a tendency to "eat the colored particules"... In about a month or so, stains should have disapeared... :wink:

this is 100% true!


I had a pair of fishnet stockings on my doll for a week, after I removed them there was a stain in the same fishnet pattern! The stain has completely disappeared on it's own.

The only thing that helped was to wash the doll in a hot shower with Soft Scrub. Then use baby powder to help absorb the oils and dye. This still won't get it all, only time will.

Best to avoid this problem by washing all clothes before dressing a doll. I wash black clothes in warm water first to draw out more dye then in cold. Afterwords I try not to leave black clothes on for more than week, but checking every day for staining. Even with Platinum I wouldn't leave anything tight on for more than a week.

This happened over night because I didn't wash the garment first.

I've been lucky so far, even when I have left sharon dressed in dark clothes for weeks she has not taken on any unnatural shades; perhaps it's a characteristic of her Cylon ancestry? :?

However what the other's say is right. While the oils in the silicon have a tendancy to absorb color dyes which then leach into her skin, eventually they are either diluted of perhaps they break down. The colors should fade with time.

Hye everydoby.I'm Louis from France.I'm kind ( :mrgreen: ).I've got a Mechadoll Brigitte which name is Emy.

.... The only solution is to wash your doll with "lessive SAINT MARC" on your bath ...Let the doll one or two hour in very hot water : http://love-dolls-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=762 your doll will become like new and very sweet too ...and after bath : talcum powder ...

But silicone doesn't like some clothes because they will run on silicone ...like "latex" "vynil" and so on

Bye everybody

sorry for my english ( :mrgreen: )
