Ive had CLR mess with the color of the paint, as well as the color of the vinyl. The best way to avoid any of that is to only have a cotton ball, wet with CLR, only touching the green. Then use an eye dropper to wet the cotton ball as it dries out ( every morning, for example) Treating with CLR is a very new method, and we don't know the long term affects.... oh! And when cleaning the doll before treatment, i use rubbing alcohol on a qtip. Inside and out until the qtip doesn't pick up any green. The best tip ever is to thread a needle with white thread, soak the thread in rubbing alcohol, and run that through the ear hole to clean it out, repeating until no more green is pulled out :) then start treatment....
A great haul. Midnight Blue is a favourite of mine, like you say, very regal. My Enchanted Evening stole so far is okay. The only shedding I've experienced so far, is glitter from the Solo In The Spotlight gown. Don't have Holiday Dance but want it, and yours is complete and gorgeous. The red top, black pants are Pak items, usually coming with an accessory. A clutch bag was included with the top, yellow with the red one. Five were sold in a Pak in 64 called Color Coordinates. So handy to add to a fashion. I put the blue one with Outdoor Art Show.
Hi Mandi, nice to see another green eat method. So far I've only used spot cream containing peroxide. Initially 3 percent, which worked well on a Skipper that I'd left the hairband on after taking a photo. It also removed pink marks from Mego Cher's Dramatic Drizzle gown. Since then, I went on to one by Rugby with 10 percent for faster results.
Thank you for the general information about Barbie collecting as well as how to treat green ear. I have a couple of Bubblecut's with it one more than the other. Great haul! Love the Midnight Blue and Career Girl.
Hi; Nice video. Question: I have heard that CLR works on barbie's green ears, but in the long term causes brown stains on the treated area. Have you heard that ?
First time watching you on UA-cam. I have 3 vintage Barbie dolls with green ear. I also have original Barbie clothes some of which are in great condition and others not so much. Would you be interested in any of this? I could send pictures.
i always have great fun when watching your videos. It's like visiting a friend for half an hour!
Cool! my mother made Barbie dolls for 20 years (Hawthorne California plant)..I have a large collection.
Very cool!
please make a video of your collection and tag me 😊 I would love to see it!❤
Awesome haul! Love the midnight blue.

I am a little late showing up here but I do have a question. Where the heck do you live that you are finding so much beautiful stuff?!
I live in North Carolina 😊
Nice find, I love to clean and fix the dolls and clothes up, very rewarding!❤
I love your videos as they are so helpful! Do you have any ideas on how to clean an outfit with metallics?

Jaqueline Hamlett Thanks for the info!

How often to you change the CLR pad? Thank you 😊
Thanks for all the great information!
Wonderful and helpful. Thankful.
Could you please tell me how to remove ink? It's a pen mark on the bendable Barbie leg. Thank you.
I've heard you can use Remove Zit or acne cream for leg stains, but I haven't had good luck with it.
Have you ever tried Remove Zit from Twin Pines for green ear? Used this many years ago!
Thank you for sharing your green-ear treatment technique. I will have to try it out on my red haired bubblecut BARBIE
:o)
I like your style
Have you tried Remove-Zit? I have used CLR and alcohol but only had moderate success.
I used the Zit on my old Barbie & it really worked. Took some time though.
Hola a mi me encanta coleccionar es mi primer día que veo tus ❤️ qué pasó con la segunda parte se quitó La Mancha ❤️
I heard that the new environmental clr doesn’t work. Did this work.
Hi; Nice video. Question: I have heard that CLR works on barbie's green ears, but in the long term causes brown stains on the treated area. Have you heard that ?
I hadn't heard that! Good to know.
i bought a doll and then i noticed the green ear so i,m going to give it a try
Was the green ear very severe do you have pics of before and after ?
I have a few green ear pictures on Instagram - link in the description.
I am looking for the black and white swimsuit for my 1959 Barbie
Omg. These clothes are so difficult to find! They are from my childhood
First time watching you on UA-cam. I have 3 vintage Barbie dolls with green ear. I also have original Barbie clothes some of which are in great condition and others not so much. Would you be interested in any of this? I could send pictures.
Put Vasoline over her make-up since CLR will fade the paint.
Do you saturate the little pizzas' every day I missed that part ty
Its not necessary to resaturate every day, but they will start to dry out after a few days. I would usually just replace them at that point.
Hey, it seems you know your Barbies. I'm trying to identify my vintage Barbie (japan stamped). Any ideas who I could contact about it?
There are several groups on Facebook that are super helpful identifying Barbies and clothing
The furry rap is make from a real bunny thats why is so rare
Will this work on a TNT barbie
No, for mod dolls I use Remove Zit. It will remove color from the face. I use Copic markers to color it back in after treatment.
@@MRounds143 thanks so much
I think this causes brown ear many years down the road... :(
That is sadly true :-(
Do you sell these finds?
Jill Mozena I do still sell some, yes
😍😚
