340-S Hood inserts who "restores" them ?
Leana , Please P.M. me so we can discuss an estimate. Thanks Ron
I appreciate that Ron but encourage you to research all other avenues first.
Your 340-S inserts are a lot more rare and costly, and heating up pot metal -- most especially on a job that will take several colors (a chrome replica, light and dark argent silvers sealed with a separate clear coat for UV stability, and flat black for the trim stripe) -- just increases the chances of pulling trapped air pockets to the surface.
In a perfect world they'd turn out great but if they don't, repairs and rework can get very costly very quickly. The real possibility also exists that it could ruin and/or warp them. I don't have my hands on the invoice for the inserts I showed up there but remember they were a ton of work (mostly filling and sanding) even without any pot metal bubbling pitfalls.
You probably didn't expect this from a vendor when you replied, but I didn't get where I am today by inviting work and only offering apologies along with my invoice. There is no better customer than an informed one, and if I'm not your best choice for a given project then I'll be the first one to tell you so. In the cases of restoring pot metal, I'm more likely to try to talk you out of it instead of reaching for your wallet.
