Help with insane staining

Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I got my Sasara dollfie and put her default outfit on and noticed outfit stains like crazy and her whole upper body is completely purple in like 2 minutes. Also the color got on my fingers so when I touched the bust to put on the shirt, there was a big purple mark on top of the breasts as well.

I managed to get most off with the Dream Rescue cream but I don’t know how to wear the costume without crazy staining. I also fear it will dirty the doll more if I use it. I could buy the body suit but I don’t know if it looks good with this outfit and it is very tight.

If anyone knows what to do or has had similiar issue, please help.

sorry I realized I post it in wrong place, it was meant for questions

One method I've used is acne cream (specifically the type that contains 10% benzoyl peroxide). Starts with putting it on the affected area, wrapping it with saran wrap, then applying heat to it (blow drying it, leaving it out in the sunlight, etc.). I've done this quite a few times and it usually works. It helps to do it once or twice every couple of days, the difference was very noticeable with my dolls. As for the garment, I would maybe try washing it with a color stop or a cold salt/vinegar bath. Sometimes these outfits have a lot of excess dye left in them, which could be what happened with this outfit. Not to say this would stop it from staining entirely, but it could help it some. I've done this with one of my outfits before and it was surprising how much dye came out. I would definitely keep that outfit off her for now though. This is all that has worked for me, at least. Wish you luck on this!! It is scary to have these dolls get stained so badly, especially so quickly </3

Also, there is this topic on the site all about stain removal and prevention: https://www.dolldreaming.com/topic/1794-dollfie-dream-stain-prevention-amp-removal-faq/page/6/ . Would probably be a good resource to check out.

instead of the bodysuit have you seen dollfie protect tape? I use it for the same problem of not liking how the bodysuit looks with an outfit lol. I either add tape to the parts on the doll fabric would make contact or on the outfit itself if I really don't want it to be seen. I've also heard of others using saran wrap! Which in theory makes sense but personally I haven't tried it myself o:

I have Sasara too so Im pretty familiar with her suit and the trouble it brings

I think you're better off keeping her out of that stain monster because it will stain even with a suit on. But, if you really, REALLY want her to wear it you're gonna have to wash all the dye off using dish soap. (Forget the vinegar, the warm water and all that because it wont help at all.)

- its better and quicker if you wash it under the faucet, dont mind the water temp.

- Applying a generous amout of soap directly to the fabric, scrub, scrub away like there's no tomorrow, specially along the seams. The soap will turn dark black which means its working. Stop after 2-3 minutes and rinse completely. 

Be prepared to do it at least 10x, it has a lot of dye and it won't come completely off easily. 

- You will know its done when the soap stops turning black and no more dye comes off. If in doubt let it sit for about 5 minutes and if the water comes clean then you've finished. Then all you have to do is tumble or machine dry it and it's ready to be worn without staining @onion20@

Now, the color will fade a little in comparison, it won't be as deep and bright but will look alright trust me it won't look gray, washed off or something.

As for her remaining stains, id apply plenty of cream, saran wrap it and give it some weeks for the stains to fade. You could still go the sun exposure but this way you still get to play with her while the cream does its job.

Good luck let is know how it turned out

Thank you all, I will try to wash the clothes later. For now I have different outfit and I have extra body so I can clean the old one. :3
