So my yo-yo fell on the ground in a completely stone driveway… I was very mad it was my Czech Pivot that didn’t have any dings on it now it has some, and my TopYo Photon which has a tiny ding on it before. But I was wondering if there is any way to get it to come out, the Czech pivot is brown with black centers and the Photon is silver with blue rims. Please help!

You can sand it down, pretty much the only option

Just let it be if it does not affect play.

I’ll only sand if the ding is rough enough to bother me while I play. Otherwise the more you mess with it, it just gets worse.

We’re not happy until you’re not happy! \*\<B{Q\>

dont sand the yoyo. you would be removing a bit of weight from one side, which could cause vibration.  
keep the dings, save them as battle scars.  
my shutter is so dinged but it still plays boss.
