Chavezzito 121 Posted September 12, 2012 That´s so sad Hazz, hate when I find something that really is not a big issue but you when you know it´s there it is annoying. Hope you have a steady hand! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnPilot 1 Posted September 12, 2012 I would not touch it, you'll never get the right sahde of white. It will be even more visible than now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myaz 3 Posted September 12, 2012 Having painted miniature models when I was a kid, the toothpick would seem too big.Back then, I used a paintbrush and cut off all the bristles except for a few. To paint eyes on a figurine 1cm tall, I would use a brush with a single hair, lots of patience. Your problems will be matching the color and 1 single wrong move and it will look worse than if you do nothing. Don't think you could remove where the paint goes too wide.

10:10 Watch Repair 1 Posted September 12, 2012 Has anyone ever undertaken this fix ? yes, but you need a fine oiler, not a toothpick. 0.1 pin OK ? and paint? what type ? I use Krylon shortcuts, but that's just because I have it. By pin, do you mean a straightpin? You need the oiler because it has a little diamond shaped tip to pick up the paint in the right amount. Too pointed, will pick up too much, strangely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
