Alright so I use a light box that I made

But the before and after is always so satisfying! This took a few months and while she’s not perfect she’s much much better
 
Why is poor Confetti always so discolored? She wasn't the only early white pony but she always seems to suffer the worst.

Your's is looking fantastic!
 
Holy cow! What a difference :shock: did you use developer cream on her too or just the light box? I got a lightbox for X-mas and I still haven't pulled it out to play with yet. Between work, holidays, friends wedding and planning a vacation I just haven't had much free time but I can't wait to see what it can do :coolpony:

I did. I slathered her in the cream with a paint brush, nice and thick. Even over her symbols and eyes (her hair had been packed tight in paper towels, tinfoil and painters tape, yet a part got faded anyway). I had to repaint a few times, and found the thicker the layer is, the better it worked.
 
Wonderful job saving her!
 
This is an amazing result - would you mind describing your light box?

@ParadiseDreams It's simple and ugly, I'll have to take a picture of it later.
I used a cardboard box, lined it with tin foil on all the interior walls, floor and ceiling. Sealed it shut, and cut a hole at the top just large enough for my light to sit upon. I use a Par 38 bulb used for reef tanks, closest to the sun's UV light as I can find.

Thank you for sharing the information - you have had amazing results!
 
Who is next in the queue? :D
 
So when you say it took a few months, how long do you typically run it at a time? Is it on all the time or do you do a few hours a day or something?

Not sure! Gotta see who’s in my box to sort!

It’s on all the time! Unless I’m away for the night then I turn it off
 
Wow, so amazing! How do these Confettis keep getting like this?!
You’ve done amazing work, my goodness! :shock: Keep it up!
 
WOW! This is crazy awesome!! I created a lightbox like the one you described only I used a UV light that was on Amazon. I had a yellowed Moondancer and she came out nice in about a week with no developer. I can't wait to try some more!
