Due to the smoothness of the surface and the matt finish of the paint, some Grand Champions loose their colours or markings. There are a few things that you can try, but be warned, you may do more damage. So if you do follow these tips make sure you do them to the tee, and with a steady hand.

To wash your horse: Use a plain soap on a soft wash cloth (microfibre may be the way to go) and gently wash the horse. Be careful not to scrub at any marks as this will remove the paint. Try it on a hidden part of the model before a non hidden spot.
If you find that you still have spots, grab a q-tip (ear buddy) put a tiny amount of soap on it, and gently dab the spot in a wide motion. Make sure you do not concentrate on one small area as this again will remove the paint
Black Spots or Marks: For those stubborn marks that just wont go, try using baking soda on a q-tip or soft cloth. Gently rub the mark, and take extreme care not to remove any of the paintwork. This is a handy way to remove yellowness from the white horses and the pintos.
