I'm not sure where this needs to go, but after buying JBL i saw this black dot/stain along with an indented scratch. I tried rubbing it with rubbing alcohol, but no luck. I'm not sure how to fix it, I've never dealt with customs/fix ups and i just need some insight on to how to fix this. Thanks guys.  |

Get some Goof-Off (comes in a yellow can)...squirt a little bit on a Q-Tip.....and start rubbing that area, but don't apply a ton of pressure...it should lift the stain and oxidize out the scratch, should look pretty new when you're done.

Is there a thread on how to remove the thigh swivel? I tried Goo-Off/Goo-Gone and it's still on pretty good. My best luck in my mind right now is to just switch thighs. Unless anyone else has any other ideas..?

Goof off should work, i don't know any other solution.

It does look like a puncture wound. Was it just a stain?

Maybe it was a factory error? Who knows, all i know is it wont come off, whatever it is. I've tried rubbing alcohol, goo-gone, and goo-off. Dunno what else, haha. |

If this was my figure, I'd get some white tape and wrap it around it and call it an injuy. But I know you guys are keen on displaying them perfectly.

you can try Goof off, but I has a spot like this on a wade barret on his temple, was blue and not purple but it was inside the plastic and goof off didn't work, had to repaint it to get rid of it.

Not gonna find a specific skin tone just on the shelf, you'll have to by a base tone and mix it to make it darker or lighter, brown for dark white for light. |
