Hi all! I volunteered to help my best friend restore her teddy bear and need some expert advice! She sleeps with it every night and has since she was a tiny kid. He is in very bad shape. His name is snowy but I call him slushy because he's the color of the grey slush on the side of the road after the snow's melted. I'd like to help my friend by deeply sanitizing the bear and restoring any whiteness I can.
About Snowy
Here's a picture of him http://instagram.com/p/kGoznJOSED/
He is in a delicate, deteriorated state
I do not want to open him unless totally neccessary
I don't know what Fabric he is- it feels like cotton; it has no sheen anymore
Manufactured by Dakin (likely 1986)
I've read lots of tips such as putting him in the freezer, using just a washcloth and water, etc. I need your expert advice on how I can get him as clean and white as possible! As you can see from the picture, there is absolutely no need to keep him in any kind of collector condition. Any help would be great!
