What is "Water Treatment" and how do you do it?

[Mesa]

I'm assuming it weighing down 12" figure's clothes with water and then letting dry in preferred stance, but any additional advice would be appreciated. I just opened up Indy and I can see where maybe his shirt doesn't lay the way I want it.

Are there any risks (stains, rust, etc.)? Do clothes have to be removed or just do with spray bottle? Avoid leather/pleather?

That was helpful.

Not sure if I'm going to attempt it though.

Are there any metal joints internal to the figures? Is mildew/mold ever a problem with water treatment?

Already saw from video leather is a no no.

I did it to the cloak of the SSC Anakin 1/4 PF and it changed it dramatically especially the hood. I recommend it.

What figure were you planning on doing this to?

I've done it to many figures & it makes a big improvement

Has anyone tried this on the Indiana Jones PF's pants?

I thought this was going to be about interrogation techniques. Glad it wasn't.
