Removing faceup on Hujoo Nano Rabi

Jan 22, 2022

    1. I recently bought a Hujoo Nano Rabi in gray skin and it came with a...not so great faceup. I want to remove it and make my own, but I wanted to know what was safe for removing the faceup? I heard NOT to use acetone, but I'm at a loss for what TO use to take it off. Also, what should I use to do the new faceup? Any help is appreciated!

    2. I've used magic eraser (melamine sponge is the generic, I think) and rubbing alcohol to remove face ups with success! I actually use those little 70% alcohol wipes made for hands and, while it takes some extra elbow grease, I think they're really easy to use and pretty cheap/easy to find.

    3. I have alcohol pads and just used one; the face up came RIGHT off with ease! Thank you for the help!!!

    4. Hujoo Rabi is ABS plastic; it's not as delicate as resin and alcohol is a good choice.

    5. As already mentioned, you can use a melamine sponge, and high percentage rubbing alcohol. Don't use Windsor & Newton Brush Cleaner and Restorer on ABS, as it will also melt it just like acetone will. I own a Hujoo Wings, and learned my lesson pretty quickly, thankfully no real damage was done, but it's better not to try unless you want a melted doll. DX Hope that helps and good luck! (:
