Hello there. I have a small light scratch on the back of my Chrome M6 ttl .72. I'm getting ready to sell it and wanted to see if I can get it cleaner. I'm a user but I know many Leica enthusiasts are sensitive about scratches. Any help would be appreciated. Tha

Hi Gabe,

My suggestion: Just leave it alone. Messing with it might make it worse. I speak as a mad toucher upper. Some things are best left untouched up. A small light scratch is not a big deal. If there is dirt in it, try this. Take a Q-tip, wet it very lightly (maybe even with your tongue) and dab at the scratch. That should do it. Don't use cleaning fluids.

Best,

Alex
