Ohhh that makes sense... I remember they used it in hospital to get the sticky stuff from the dressings off my skin!

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??
