Troubleshooting

Car appears wobbly or unstable.

Ensure the wheels are securely attached and free from debris. Due to the solid wood construction, minor imperfections may occur but should not affect play.

Lacquer seems dulled or scuffed.

Gently wipe the surface with a slightly damp, soft cloth. For minor scuffs, a very gentle polish suitable for wood might be considered, but test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh scrubbing.
