That is OUTSTANDING!! And timely, as I put an id10t mark on my V-Bob within a couple days of having it. UGH. Just rubbed the finish off, it didn't scratch the metal, but I'm thinking already about how I might want to refinish it at some point once I get it a bit more marked up from use.
That's just seriously outstanding, though, I LOVE it! Do you have any before pics, by chance? Very, very nice work!!
Ahh, I remember looking at this before I got my V-Bob. Didn't look like there was a mark on it. Nice, and again, really sweet refinishing job, it turned out fantastic!
