So I bought an Autoworld 1971 Plymouth GTX in gloss black and right after unboxing I noticed there's a rather huge matte smudge on the roof. Going over it with a dry microfibre cloth didn't work, rubbing over the area with a water dampened microfibre cloth didn't make it go away either. I wonder what this smudge is, it doesnt look like the clearcoat having come off to me, more like some kind of oil-based smear that however has somehow solidified and wont come off. I am afraid to try rubbing alchohol or use anything sharp to try and scrape it off.
This is not the first time this has happened to me, I had an MCG 1987 Chevrolet Caprice in the past that had this issue as well, had to send it back:
Is this something model car polish can fix? I have zero experience with car wax / polish, never used it before, just wondering if you guys have come across similar issues on your gloss black models.
