High Kicks!


Owner Comment: I feel the shoes are the cause of the black mark on the cheeks and chin of his face. Can you remove them?

From Clinton: You are right. With the legs folded, the shoes were against the cheeks and these marks are the result. You'd be surprised how frequently I see figures with a similar "rash". Sometimes a bit of soapy, warm water on a soft cloth is all that is needed to remove the marks. But the marks on your figure (shown here) were as stubborn as any I've come across. Not even commercial 409 solution would remove them. Anything stronger will remove all the paint, so these marks will have to be painted over.

Be sure to cover the face with a soft cloth of some type before folding his feet up against his face and you will easily avoid any future repeat of this problem.
