1982 My Little Pony G1 Peachy Vintage Toy Restoration MLP Hasbro Toy Repair Acrylic Camouflage
This Peachy seems to have been a custom pony project abandoned halfway through. She was given to me by Lauren from My Little Forest Ponies and I knew, since the moment I saw her, that I wanted to try and see what was underneath the camouflage. The pony was painted with acrylics, which are luckily waterbased. This means the paint could be removed using either acetone or, as I discovered rather late into the process, warm water I then proceeded to change her hair and style it ala1980s. Peachy is not a rare pony, but she definitely deserved a second chance. All materials used are reversible, so who knows what she might become in the future :) Important note about acetone: DO NOT use on eyes or symbols (it will erase them). WASH frequently between applications using water and soap, or the acetone will damage the vinyl. Quick jump to: Testing a little cleaning with acetone: 0:21 Cleaning the eyes with water: 0:44 Cleaning the body: 1:15 Removing the tail: 1:35
