The Up Up And Away Restoration Project: Boiling

I did this several weeks ago, but didn't do a writeup because I AM LAZY.
But here we are.

Prior to bleaching, I decided to boil Up, Up and Away to get rid of some of the mold inside of her.

Description of the process, and photos )

Even though it got rid of a lot of the mold, there was still a lot of it down inside the legs. So the next job was to bleach the pony.
Unfortunately I don't have the photos from that particular escapade uploaded, so I'll have to end the entry here. =p

So, the next one will involve experiments with bleaching, and also the removal of tail rust.

The Pony Restoration Project: Assessment of Condition

[This was written on May 18th but I didn't have a chance to put up the photos and such until now]

The following is an assessment of the pony's physical condition, judging by the standard details such as hair, symbols, and defects. There is also a suggested "treatment" for all defects.

Overall assessment: My biggest concern is mold. Aside from that, her condition really isn't that bad, and the other issues can wait until I get the black stuff sorted out.

Next entry: Boiling the pony! :D
