Just got this on ebay. Knew there were paint problems, was expecting the worst.
Overall it's in nice shape, except there is a track of 2 scratches in the paint on the top of the right side of the head (of course, the only angle the seller didn't include in the listing -- that was my bad, caveat emptor)

This was the listing: 120868941161
As you can see, there is no angle that would show the top of the right side of the head -- but other than that, the photos are accurate.


My question is, any suggestions for maybe buffing them out? They are obvious up close but not very deep to the touch.

Thank you for any ideas!

Unfortunnaly this bust has serious problems
With the painting , probably they use too dry
Paint , because his destiny is to create cracks
Mine was perfect , I keep it under glass but now
After a couple of years there are at Least 2 crack lines
On the bust , and I must be happy because the iron bust of a friend of mine now has a huge crack on the left side of the face ( the black area below the eye) .
So at the end ... There are things created to be forever ... But is not the case of this bust

Well hell... it only took about 9 years for it to show up, but now mine has paint cracks. Noticed it when I was packing some stuff up for storage.
