I have ball point pen on a vintage doll's face. How do I remove it?

I just read and noted the following. I believe it was on this site. To remove ink from vinyl dolls spread acne cream on the ink and put it the sun. The ink will vanish. I hope it works for you.

RE: Cleaning an Old Doll

The doll is probably rubber. You can use something like 409, and then rinse it off. Rubbing alcohol takes off ink, also. (09/15/2005)

RE: Cleaning an Old Doll

Contact a doll collector's club. They should know, or be able to find out, about your doll and its composition (what it's made of). Best of all they should be able to tell you how to clean and restore it without ruining it. Best of luck with your special treasure. (09/16/2005)
