Removing MSC from a 1/6 Obitsu hard bust body

[Evelien]

I'm going crazy. I've spent about an hour trying to get MSC off of a 1/6 hard bust Obitsu body. I've tried nail polish remover without and with acetone (I know it's bad but I was desperate), Magic Erasers, scourers and a flat head screwdriver. Getting it off seems impossible and the body's getting uglier and uglier, think I might as well throw it away?

Some rubbing alchol (like 91% or something but I think something lower would work)+Magic Eraser and SCRUB. Or you can get some Winsor&Newton brush cleaner if it's available around you and use that with cotton swab or magic eraser.

I think you may have actually melted the body plastic. Use a small emory board and sand it down into a shape. Then take really fine sandpaper to it - the fancy emory boards with foam in the middle usually work. Otherwise, new body. You can get a replacement torso from Parabox:

Thanks for the helpful replies. I do think I melted the plastic and I already feared this before I had even used the acetone, so I don't know what caused it. I think it's too damaged to sand down into a smooth shape, I'll check Parabox for spare parts... I wasn't very clear about the body size btw, I think it's a 23cm, which is quite flat chested compared to the 27cm torso you posted, I hope they have 23cm spare parts too. I'll check it out right now. Due to high shipping cost it might be more expensive than getting an entirely new body from Mimi Woo though..? For me, in Europe, anyway. But as I said, I'll check it out right now haha

Wanna make my third Little Pullip hybrid asap

edit Yeah.. it's as I feared.. the part is only $9, but shipping is $20. -_- I'll just get a new body
