Hi all!
I have a difficult situation going on: I've just finished shading a watch dial, and unfortunately managed to scratch one part - just a minor scratch, not a slip of a graver. I'm familiar with fixing with burin and then sanding or integrating the scratch into the design somehow, but are there any other small scratch cleaning tips if these are not an option? The background finish is like 20microns parallel sanding. If I were to burnish now, I'd have to sand the whole dial again and would lose some of the delicate shade lines. Thank you!
