How to Remove Ink From an American Girl Doll

Apply 10% benzoyl peroxide acne cream to the doll's stained skin. Set the cream-covered stain beneath the light of a lamp's bulb for approximately two hours. The lamp needs to be 4 inches from the doll's stained skin. Use a big towel to cover the doll's hair and clothing, as well as other vinyl areas around the stain.

Check the doll to make sure the heat from the light bulb isn't too hot on the vinyl skin. If necessary, adjust the distance of the lamp. Let the doll sit under the light bulb for at least 2 hours, and then remove the doll from under the light. Wipe the benzoyl peroxide acne cream away from the doll's skin with a damp cloth. Repeat the process again, if necessary, until the stain is completely removed. If you put the doll under the light for a second time, be sure to check on it every 5 minutes. Repeat until the stain is removed.

Apply a quality brand whitening toothpaste with a little bit of warm water to the ink stain on the American Girl doll. Apply toothpaste with a cotton swab directly on the marked skin. Let it sit for at least 2 minutes. Then apply a dab of warm water to a cloth and rub gently. Rinse the skin with warm water and repeat if necessary. If necessary, repeat the steps several times to receive the results that you desire.

Spray hairspray directly on the stained area of your American Girl doll. Allow it to sit for at least 2 minutes without letting the moisture from the spray dry completely. Rub the area with a paper towel or cloth. If the ink stain doesn't come off completely, spray the area again and add a few drops of clear liquid detergent to the stained area. Rub the area with your fingers and wipe the area off with lukewarm water. Repeat if necessary.
