Yes it is on the surface - great tip, thank you

Paul, any chance of JP 3 Males?

Be careful using a paint polish, I would recommend a clear plastic specific polish. Meguiars has many to choose from, its what I use. The finishing "polish" will leave no scratches like a more abrasive compound.

Man you guys are wanting to find anything wrong with these. I've QC'd a lot and I haven't seen anything that's even close to what you are describing, but we also don't subject them to extreme lighting conditions...

These are resin, not acrylic as it's been posted before. I'm sure just like the paint, there will be variations in the castings.

Yeah they’re getting way too extreme with criticisms. I’m not surprised anymore. I just shake my head.

Noted, thanks. I'll see what I can find.

Once again it wasn't a criticism. I just assumed it was a natural by-product of the materials or something else pretty common, and wanted the best advice on how to clean it up.

This statue is magnificent. You have no idea the excitement it's caused at my flat, haha! Best purchase ever.

If one spend this ammount of money on a collectible, a sold out product he cannot hurt sales anyway, leave an utter positive review with no criticism in it at all, when then ask for advice on how to improve something he noticed he shouldn’t read responses like these.
Nobody was critizing, nobody wanted to find issues, (even if we had all the right of the world to do so in case of problems, and it’s not the case here obviously).
We were just asking for advice on tools and products to use before do any damage, and thanks to Steve we now know that car polish will work flawlessly, as they also use it on the resin amber in this video with stunning results.

Sure, it was clear from the beginning.

I hope the hype of the female doesn't drive up the edition size for the male. Hopefully it matches the female.
