Teddy Bears: All You Need To Know About How To Collect Them,Make Them And Make Money From Them |

Teddy bears really can make you money. Many work-at-home people are figuring this out for themselves. No one likes to have to clock into work every morning and fight traffic just to get there. If you have a passion for teddy bears or crafting this could definitely be the business for you... |
My child smeared a valuable Steiff teddy bear with red lipstick. How do I get it out?
The dry cleaner won't even look at it
Ohhh, what a disaster. I have a collection of Steiff myself and can sympathize.
First of all, I absolutely agree with the previous poster's suggestion that you contact Steiff Inc. Their CS is very good, and I'm sure they have dealt with similar dilemmas in the past... and probably far worse than lipstick!
If for some reason they can't help, here is what *I* would do... There's a product called "Motsenbocker's Lift-Off #2" (sounds like something from the old'n days, eh? 
This product will remove just about anything.... from... just about anything. It *does* remove lipstick, and I theorize that since it's color/fabric safe... (it's often used on carpet and upholstery) it would be suitable for the prized plush.
I'm sure you realize that regardless of what you use... it's not going to be perfect, but getting it clean and hopefully stain-free... will result in your being able to display it once again.
Here's the site where you can purchase the "Mots"... it's $15.19 for 47 oz:
