In my haste of removing my helmet from the tote over the week I some how put some light scratches on the top of my bucket. :(

Any one have a good way of removing scratches or paint that closely matches??

If it's a Altmanns I believe it's just injected ABS and not paint . I paint cars for a living . I would lightly wet sand with 2000 grit and just polish the helm

Novus plastic polish is really good for scratches on plastic. It's what a lot of people use on various armor

all of Altmanns helmets are vac formed, not injected, and painted with acrylic laquer.

cheers

I'll try sanding and polish to see if that works like you suggested to me earlier spike. its not too noticeable being on the top but I'm OCD about these things lol. If not weathering works too, i was thinking of dirty it up at some point

Use some black spray paint and weather your armor

This was a plan for me at some point, I just completed this kit a month ago. Just hadn't planned on weathering yet lol

Is there a good tutorial for this ?
