Default Smoke Damage

I don't know if anybody will be able to help me but any ideas you can offer I be willing to try. My airport building which are of a Herpa products suffer smoke damage due to house fire. I have been able to clean them up pretty well execpt for the roof of the buildings. If anybody can tell me something that might remove the last of the smoke on the roof I would appreciate it.

I would suggest spraying the roof with a color of your choice.

Try using a very small portion of a small DRY spong. That's what they used after the bombing of the World Tade Center.
