Have you tried to polish it out? There is a pretty good chance you can. Use either novus #2 or bare metal foil plastic polish. If neither of these are available try good old fashioned toothpaste (the paste kind, not gel). It has a mild abrasive in it and I have used it a few times when I ran out of the other stuff.
Hi stukah,
Bummer Dude![banghead] I hate when that happens. I think I have a spare closed Tamiya Zero canopy in 1/48 scale. If you would like it, send me an E mail with your address to:

It may be Monday before I can get it in the system, but it shouldn’t be any later than that. Don’t give me a PO Box, I will be sending it UPS and they don’t do PO Boxes.
