QuestionWhat else could be done to a plastic doll's exterior to remove pen markings on it?Community Answer10% Benzoyl peroxide acne spot treatment cream. Apply the cream to the affected area then wrap it in saran wrap (so it doesn't rapidly dry out). Cover all other areas of the doll in a cloth, so that only the saran covered stains are exposed. Place the doll outside in the sunlight for an hour or two then bring it back inside to cool down (to avoid the plastic deformation). Once cool to touch, check if the cream has dried out; if it has wipe away the residue and apply a new layer to the clean & dry plastic. Re-wrap the doll in saran and the protective cloth then put it back outside for 1-2 hours. You may need to repeat this process a few times if the stain is very large or old.
