Big trouble in little China (Black mold remover)

Post by **TJ_Foxx** » Sun Jun 10, 2018 12:47 pm

White vinegar used full strength will kill mold down to the root, and bleach will remove most of the stain. Honestly, I'd pitch the poor girl's head and get her a new one. If she has an insert toss it and get a new one. If she has a fixed vagina, you probably need a whole new doll. I am guessing her rear entry has mold as well.

The best way to fight mold is BEFORE it grows.

With what kind of glue?

Rather than straight bleach mix 50/50 water and bleach, could even add a bit of dish soap. Soak a paper towel or a small cloth and stick in there. for a couple hours
Keep doing that and scrub best you can. Might even try a toothbrush to help scrub lightly.
You do not need to glue her mouth shut. If you can beat this. Your pic does not look like mold is up very far. If you just kissed her.
It's live and learn right?

The mold was there when I bought it (just a little bit) then it spreads recently...

Are you the original purchaser/ owner of the Doll, I can't imagine how Mold would be already growing in a Factory New TPE Doll.

I bought her new.
There was a bit of black stuff just near the teeth I thought that it was some burning mark, it bothered me but I forgot about it.
Until I saw that it spread...

Bleach do not take of anything.
How to glue the mouth permanently?

Did you try 99%alcohol. Or burning the mold off with a soldering iron that would probably be the last resort before tossing it and buying a new one.check the humidity in the area she is stored anying over 50 is mold growth conditions.i would keep her in a place with sufficient light but not to much.

The problem is fixed.
I used bleach baking soda.

Now I would like to seal permanently her mouth.

What kind of clue should I use?

Thanks

Testors plastic model cement may work.
No point in spending a load of money on this. If you are planning on replacing the head. Or even the entire doll.
As far as a new head, you may have a bit of difficulty getting the skin tone of a new head to match. Hopefully not, but is something to take note of anyway.

There is a TPE "glue" vendors sell. Not cheap. For decent fusing on TPE I'd melt with a solder iron, but that's tricky. A bit of a learning curve.
I do not recommend any solvent from a hardware store. Do more harm than anything. (ie. Xylene)
Crazy glue can work too. use it past the teeth, that way nothing will obviously show. Dries hard.
I did test the Testors model cement. It works to a point, if area is not going to be put under stress. it's only 4-5 bucks
Others may have better ideas.

LOL.... Caustic!!
Not a great idea. For the amount he would use, not worth buying that. And not worth melting the mouth all to hell!!

If it's fixed, why do you need to glue her mouth shut?

Talkative doll?

I dunno but Samara suggested he clean up mold then seal the mouth up.
I would try to keep it clean and dry and leave it open.
Unless she just never stops talking, then it shall be sewn up!!! LOL
