So, unfortunately, I've been displaying item #29253 next to my computer ever since I got her at AX2011. And, well - she's filthy. Of course I clean my figures every few weeks, but, her hair just won't get clean! The material required to have that sheen is just a magnet for dust, I think. it also dosen't help my town is classified as a "semi-arid desert" and there's a huge patch of dirt a few doors down It's getting to the point where I need to do something about it.
How can I clean her hair? I've heard of using soap and water, but, I don't know what soap to use so I don't ruin the paint and/or plastic on her. And, can I dunk her in water? Or, is that a big no-no for figures? And, what can I metaphorically scrub her with? I've also heard of using tooth-brushes, but, I just see visions of scratches everywhere on her ;______;
The rest of my figures are pretty easy to clean, and, these ones and everything after that I get are staying sealed in their boxes until I get a display case: item #72269, item #12045, item #27699, item #2423.
And, by the end of this year or when my meetings for AnimeEXPO start up again, I'm going to my nearest Ikea and getting a Detolf.
