<p>[QUOTE="bluumz, post: 436543, member: 649"]I did the gentle soapy water toothbrushing for approximately 20 seconds, gently towel-dried it, and observed there were still a few dirt spots (I noticed no crack at this point). Then I repeated the process, and there was the dark-ish crack. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie14" alt=":arghh:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>EDIT: Yikes! I must be blind, don't know how i missed it! Frankly, I'm still glad I bought it (got a very good price) and I feel so relieved that I didn't cause the damage. My cleaning probably just made the carving whiter and the dark-ish crack more apparent to me. Still wondering how I can lighten the crack...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
