Green Ear Removal
...After over a decade of restoring, I am happy to offer a green ear treatment!
This amazing process leaves no horrible smell,
and so far I have not seen any resulting vinyl discoloration nor damage to the face paint.
It can remove up to 95% - 100%
of the green on the vintage dolls* (See the examples below).
Important! -- Dolls must never have been treated for green before, with any product whatsoever, in order for me to achieve the results seen below.
***************
Treatment time varies from a few days to a few weeks. No other treatment currently available works this quickly, even on the Fashion Queen Barbies!
*Please note: Just as Mattel did not realize the long
term effects of using metal earrings in the dolls' ears, the long-term effects
(if any) of this treatment are obviously not known and may not appear for many
years.
Therefore please be responsible and weigh the (possible) risks vs. the benefits
when proceeding with any green ear treatment! There is no possible way for
one to warranty such methods.
Long-term results and effects are unknown and may vary!
The green may re-surface with time since green ear is so invasive and
unpredictable.
Mod dolls (pink skin vinyl) may be treated as well with varying success, however the formerly green area will need to be re-colored since the oxidation itself damages (fades) the skin coloring underneath.
This is not Removezit, Tarnex or CLR!
Cost: $35 - $50 per doll
(not available for home use)
**As I request with all restorations, please send the entire doll (not just the head only)**
Other stain removal: I generally do not offer other stain removal as part of my services, but please consult my Your Questions Answered section for stain removal tips that you can try at home.
