Oh wow - what a good idea! Does it work better than Acetone on the first set of so softs? Because they are hard to deflock Sad

Please let us know how it goes. While Jasco works well to take flocking off, sometimes it damages paint, plus it's kinda strong smelling....

Does anyone know how eucalyptus oil affects paint, as opposed to acetone (well, we already know what acetone does to to pony paint)?

She look amazing! Did you boil her in Oxyclean first, or just use the eucalyptus oil?

Does anyone in the US know where we could buy eucalyptus oil? Maybe some place like whole foods??
