Miracle stain remover

Baby Talk

So I have this doll that I had pretty much given up. She had horrible blue stains and I had tried everything to get them out. Toothpaste, Windsor and newton, magic eraser, pimple cream. When I say everything, I mean everything. This doll had been stained for yeeeeeears.

Anyway I was on MacP’s the other day and came across this product. It was really cheap (either 3.99 or 5.99 I can’t remember), so I thought I’d try it.

After all the failed attempts and months of trying to fix this precious childhood doll, I put a pea size amount of this over all her stains, and the next day they were gone. No scrubbing, no wrapping, no sunlight. I almost cried. I really wish I took some before and after pics, but I truly didn’t think it would work.

I just wanted to let you guys know(if you didn’t already) about this hidden gem.

I hope it works for you. I just wiped it off another stained doll. The blue stain has changed to a very light brown, but I think it will come off if I reapply and wait another day

It’s a more expensive because it’s a bigger size, but it looks like it’s in stock on their website. I want to try the stink spray and see what it’ll do for smoke smell

I love Twin Pines products. I used to buy a product to clean antique baby clothes from them and it was so much more gentle than Oxy Clean.

I wonder if this was one of the original stain removers for dolls and eventually the name was bastardized into zit remover, then people were using skin care products like Oxy-10 and the like?

I know I’ve seen this particular product before, but so often we’re recommending zit creams and pimple shrinking gels.

Good reminder of this, @Helenabeereborns! Glad you came across something that has worked when nothing else did!

The tutorial for this product on MacPherson’s says it’s not water soluble. How do you get it completely off?

Please let us know how that goes. Smoke smell can be really hard to get out.

I just received them yesterday.
So far D-Stinker does nothing. Maybe after it sit for a while, I will see.
Formula 911 seem to get the smell off, but replace it by an orange smell🙄. It’s greasy. I don’t know yet if it will last after washing or the smoke smell will come back. Does nothing for the burnt mark but I didn’t have any expectations.
I tried the zit remover, I will see in a couple of days if it does something. (I have a kit with purple marks too)

So far I am not impressed.

You have to use the formula 911 to get the zit remover completely off. Some will come off with water, but it leaves a ‘film’ that wont come off without the 911

I didn’t try the d-stinker, but the others didn’t leave a smell after I washed with dawn. But it was a hard berenguer doll, so that may affect it

I wonder if the 911 is like GooGone? It’s also greasy and smells like orange peels.

I am not too worry. Thoses are kits from a house fire so it’s their last chance anyway !

The instructions say you can use vinegar, I believe white vinegar to get the Remove Zit off. Can’t say it is true or not. I have not gotten that far.
