The effectiveness of the Rejuvenate on that Captain America figure probably had more to do with surface area as much as anything. I've been using Pledge Floor Care Finish with Future Shine for many years now and I've found the size of the joint, or more specifically the total area of contact, has the most impact on how effective the Pledge will be. Simply put, more contact area means greater friction. The Holloway House stuff might have preformed identically on Cap's waist.
Really nice man! Always good to know how to fix loose joints. What I use(when the joints arent extremely loose) is teflon tape, it does a pretty decent job
On the back of the Rejuvenate bottle it says "BEFORE USE: Floors treated with acrylic based coating must be thoroughly stripped." I'm gonna guess that acrylic paint counts as an acrylic based coating, so I'm a little hesitant to use it on an action figure. (although that might be why it works so well)
Just so you know, Pledge Floor Care now actually IS Pledge Revive It. That's why Floor Care is no longer available.. because they named it Pledge Revive It. Therefore both your first 2 bottles were actually the same product!
It isn't. That's what people thought at first, but it seems they changed the formula for some reason, and it no longer acts the same on action figures.
Great video, Dex. Useful and unique content. Keep up the good work. I recently bought Thanos and Iron Man MK50 Infinity War ShFiguarts KO's from AliExpress. Guess what? They look extremely decent. Thanos looks perfect, while the only prob w/ Iron Man is the flimsy articulations. Thanks for the solution.
Per your expert conclusion, I bought some Rejuvenate today. Excellent experiment, friend. Also.. where do get those dropper applicators? Salute from Michigan -- Paul
I need some of that Floor Care, I got a Malekith and out of the box his ab crunch was so loose, same for my Green Goblin had the same problem as your captain america and ruined the posing factor
Nice and informative, I've always wondered what would be the alternative if Pledge ever becomes unavailable. Recently I also looked for more Pledge but the ones that showed up available at my Walmart are different from the 2014/2015 Pledge version that I currently use. I still have my Pledge Floorcare Multisurface Finish from 2014/2015. I still have more than half of it due to how little of it I use each year. Surprisingly, it still works even now in 2019! Anyway, based on what I saw in the video, I think Rejuvenate tightens more than Pledge. Whenever I used Pledge, it never got to the point where I'd have to use decent force just to make the limb move. I'm just a little bit worried about what seems to be "Super Tightness" that Rejuvenate causes. Wouldn't it be bad for thin joints? Although Rejuvenate would reinforce the joint area, I fear that the force necessary to make the joint move (coming from us) would potentially cause accidental breakage in the area. Maybe we need another experiment where Rejuvenate is applied on a bootleg toy's thin joint. An example of a thin joint would be the type where it looks like it's just "half" of a whole joint, usually used on wrists in Figuarts toys. If a bootleg toy's thin joint can survive decent force after being applied with Rejuvenate, then it would mean it can safely be used on even original thin joints. I think for now, when it comes to Rejuvenate VS Quick Shine, I'll pick Quick Shine because it doesn't cause "Super Tightness" so to me that is safer, at least until we find out if Rejuvenate won't cause breakage on the thinner or weaker joint types :)
Great vid. I’ve also heard that r/c car hydraulic shock fluid works as well or better than floor care products. Maybe Kyosho makes some? I‘d be curious to see that tested at some point.
Shock oil is recommended to be used for the OPPOSITE problem: when joints are too tight! R/C shock oil will lubricate a joint and make it easier to move and manipulate.
Does this work for Accessories too? I have a bootleg Mirage Raphael and his sais keep falling off, if I used this on the sais would he be able to hold them without struggle?
Which would you recommend for my S.H monsterarts Godzilla Final wars, it completely falls apart if I even move any of the joints (except for the legs, they're ok)
Thank you!! I’ve been looking for a floor care product to tighten my marvel legends. I had read that the new Pledge isn’t as good as the old one. Not to mention couldn’t find any pledge floor care products in my area, but I did find Halloway House! Except it isn’t the Hardwood version, it is The green label “multi surface floor finish”, I’m wondering if this would work?
dstartoys.com/collections/repairs-and-services/products/dr-dstars-joint-fixer-elixir-action-figure-loose-joint-solution?variant=31931805401188 this works better
I have the same Spider-Man figure his ab crunch is very loose so I’ll definitely give quick shine a go when I can get it, also where did you get it from? I’m guessing Lowe’s or home depot?
I want to put this on my Spiderman 2 action figure and is in near perfect condition except his loose ab crunch. I want to put either quick shine or rejuvenate in the joints, but if I put would it mess up the paint or leave a white mark on the paint? If it does, is there any way to fix that?
I like these kind of videos, it’s pretty funny, keep the good work up👍🏽 Also I have a problem with bij Ssb Vegeta, the Whis Gi Ssb Vegeta, the head joint thing keeps falling off and I don’t know how to fix it
Hey Dstar01 do you have any issues with the Pledge Floor Care or the Rejuvenate only lasting a short amount of time? Like only a couple days, or it fades after VERY little moment of the joint? Am I doing something wrong?
Hey. My figma Mikasas leg keeps falling off. Does this still work for that. Because I’m going to be really sad if I paid like 110 dollars for a practically unusable figure
@@dstar01 I guess there called bandi hobby figures but they come in a box with all the littlt plastic pieces and you put them together. I was just asking cause there cheaper and I think they look better than the dragon stars. And I rather buy from you rather than Amazon or eBay.
What luck that you happened to recently upload this. I recently got Striker Manus Premium and it has very look arm joints. So I've been looking to find a solution to fix it since I can't find any Pledge Floor Care anywhere.
@@basiljustinbote8342 not sure if it is as good but it works well. Also it doesn't damage anything and can actually work as a topcoat if you really want to lol
@@carlobelnas802 oh, that's good to know, my ML figure that I just opened has a bit of loose foot. It will eventually progress so I'm looking for solutions now. lol. Just to make sure, this is the one with a green sticker right? Thanks!
I dont know if you will respond but i dont know how to tell you but i have a problem with my iron man mark 42 marvel legends figure the left knee joint is very wobbly even with a slight movement i am commenting this because i saw your fixing subscribers figures video and i was wondering if you could try and fix it
I might be nitpicking and I'm grateful for the video wouldn't it have been better to apply each of them to the legs of the two Spidermen? Even so great video and time for me to buy some wood finishing products
Hi. Excuse me, I had a question. What is this liquid and what is it used for? This liquid does not exist with this brand in my country. If you can help me and tell me what this liquid is, I would be very grateful.

You made this literally when I needed it most I have a few loose arms and legs on some figs I was just messing w/yesterday!....thnx for the save.
Perfect...now I gotta collect floor shining products...great video man!
You should make a series were you fix clones like so he can see
Andrew Diaz that would be kinda cool

No capp
Thank you DStar! You have really helped me with a lot, the nock off SHFiguarts, loose joints, tight joints, so much thank you!
Yes, I need this for my dragon stars and a toybiz Spider-Man, they are getting extremely loose so thank you!!
He, I have a loose arm joint on my base dragon stars goku and I just want to know if this works so, did it work?
Where did u get your Spider-Man?

What every adult female in a new relationship wants to be told.

Omg bro Respectfully your a fucking legend for that amazing comment 😭
LOL
Summary:
Quick shine or rejuvenate are good options.
Rejuvenate is the best, Quick shine is more budget friendly
I've used the quick shine...it's super strong..never used rejuvenate
@@patrickburns4821 Does it matter which one you use . Quick Shine has about 10 different ones
@@patrickburns4821nice
Thanks man. Going to be giving you a shoutout and linking to this video in one of my upcoming videos.
Whoa Uncle Jessy! Thanks man I appreciate it! Love your content ,reviews, and tips. Helped my 3D business 10 fold!
Thank you I definitely will go pick one these up!!
Thanks for the tip! This video is very helpful.
That's a really dangerous way to re-cap needles. Try laying the cap on the table, insert the needle and then re-cap.
Omg TNX for this vid !!! Now have to do it to my sailormoon figures !!!!!!
Message me on ig @dstar01toyreviews if you need my help
Where was this video when I needed it last week
Very helpful! I got a different type of Pledge a while ago for my Deku bootleg but sadly it didn't work. Definitely gonna pick up some Rejuvenate.
Hey did it work?

What is the science behind this how does the floor care tighten the joints
Hardening liquid
I got a bootleg neca GOW3 Kratos that besides the loose joints (and gold nipples) it's pretty good. And this can make it really good
I really like the way you say products

This is cool but you can also use those tiny hair ties as well. It works really well.
Nice! Tell me howwww lol

I juet used rejuvinate for one of my cap figures and it is not as loose as it was it worked amazing when i used it
As far as length of time after 3 years passed, how are those touched up figures looking? Are they still nice and tight?
Probably not. If you have mod podge that works pretty well too, that’s what I’ve usually used.
Per your expert conclusion, I bought some Rejuvenate today. Excellent experiment, friend. Also.. where do get those dropper applicators? Salute from Michigan -- Paul
Thank you for this. Subscribed.
Hey would you be able to tell me if these figures have held up in time with these techniques? I know this video is super old though
I got the quick shine cuz there was no rejuvenate and i really hope quick shine works
Did it work just got some figuarts and figma, and some were getting loose and I dont want to try and risk it?
This video was very helpful thank you.
Do you have a link to the syringes you used for this?
I need some of that Floor Care, I got a Malekith and out of the box his ab crunch was so loose, same for my Green Goblin had the same problem as your captain america and ruined the posing factor

Anyone used the red rejuvenate all floor if so did it work or brown tags the way to go?
What do I use? If I don’t have the stuff you used to apply the floor polish with?
What seringes did u use? Any links? I like that set up of the case to secure the cover and the plunger
Awesome vid, keep up the great work
I want to try both Rejuvenate and Quick Shine
My SHF Sailor Mars has a slightly loose lower left leg. Could be worse, but my conscious has been freaking out on fixing it.

Hopefully i can find some here in PH
JP Destrovine I found it on Lazada but men its expensive it cost 3100 pesos xD I rather buy another figuarts for that price haha
Dstar01 hopefully I can find a cheap price for that product cuz my 46 inches spiderman head is pretty loose :3
@@nicstolents530 thanks, guess i wont have it for now
Try pledge wipe and shine liquid polish it is available on grocery stores like hypermarket or puregold
Any updates on what alternative products you used?
Got the demoniacal fit goku black yesterday and it’s loose. Definitely getting this stuff to fix the joints
Does this work for Accessories too? I have a bootleg Mirage Raphael and his sais keep falling off, if I used this on the sais would he be able to hold them without struggle?
Would this work for a peg hole? The peg hole for my Rayquaza select figure is loose.
Which would you recommend for my S.H monsterarts Godzilla Final wars, it completely falls apart if I even move any of the joints (except for the legs, they're ok)
Where do u get the needle thing to put the thing on the figures
Can we use this pledge polish to joints that has metal in it?
What if i used the spray version of pledge or didn’t use the clear will it still be fixed
Would Murphy’s oil soap work as well?
What about the Pledge Floor Care Multi-surface finish? That’s on amazon for like $30-40. Would that work?
Will this work on my s.h figurarts akuma figure? His joints are pretty loose
Where did you get that needle syringe with protective casing?
Yes please advise.
