I was wondering if anyone had any tips for my smurfs that reek of smoke that I won in an auction!! They are in good condition... just smell really smokey I also have some smurfs that are a bit dirty... what is the best way to go about cleaning my smurfies? Thanks for your help!

Hi there and welcome to the forum.......

To clean those little blue fellas you can give them a nice was in some warm soapy water and if your going to use something like a toothbrush or scourer don't rub too hard.

I use baby wipes as the alcohol in them really helps lifts the dirt and grime and also paint splashes too.

Alternatively there are some products which can help get rid of greasy stains and ink in the pvc which are called 'remove zit' I think and is available here at www.kittyscavern.com.

Have a good time here on the forum.....

warm soapy water+Q-tips is the way i do it, and you cant even imagine how good it is, it remove dirt , paint splash,etc,

If that doesn't work then the products smurfysteve mentioned up above are viable options as well. Quite a few people use those products for the ones that have ink stains or other hard to clean stuff.

Good luck wioth the cleaning from me too

PS - I use soap to wash out Syd's mouth occasionally.....it works quite well I think....except I htink he is starting to like the taste of the soap these days. I wasn't sure but I think he made himself a lemon soap sandwich the other day. I might go back to the old form of punishment and lock Brainy in there with him so Brainy can lecture him on how he is living his life all wrong.

PPS - I am leaving this post now...cheer up

I either use a Q-tip or a soft toothbrush, too. Additionally I noticed that you can clean some markers and felt-pens, by putting either some hair-spray, alcohol (not beer) or perfume on the tooth brush/ Q-tip).

Very sensible advice. It would be a real waste of beer
