good to hear...now all I need are pics :D :thumbsup:
 
Here are your pictures Chris:

The day and condition I received the cover in:


After the cover has been cleaned and stripped:


After the cover has been media blasted:


Black powder has been applied:


Fresh from the oven:


You can't tell from the pictures the minute areas where I thought were unacceptable. But without a doubt, the cover will turn out great. :thumbsup:

It actually looked 10 times better when you cleaned and stripped it than the condition I sent it to you in :lol:

I can't really tell the problem areas in the pic but it does look like there are white flakes that never cured. Am I right? thanks for the headsup.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
No, everything cured. There were just some sags in the powder that you probably wouldn't have even noticed. I'm just weird about things like that. :thumbsup:

Cool, Thanks.

No one else is getting their covers coated? C'mon guys, he provides excellent service and is the cheapest you will ever find :thumbsup:

how are things going? I also want to see pics of the cover done over again to see if I can tell the difference.

:thumbsup:

It's going well. You won't be able to tell any difference with the new pictures because you couldn't tell what was wrong in the first set of pictures I've shown you. I had to redo it for my piece of mind. I couldn't send you the cover knowing that I didn't like certain areas of the cover. But don't worry, I'll make sure I like the cover before I release it. If it continues to go well, it should be out to you by Monday via UPS. I will notify you once it is in the hands of the Brown Guys :thumbsup:
 
I guess the only difference you will see in the new, finished pictures are the letters unmasked. I didn't even bother with the letters because of those certain sags in the powder.

hell yeah...ME LIKES!!!

You even masked the letters off for me and I didn't even ask you to
:worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

you are the man... :thumbsup:
 
Would you like me to redo it with the letters in Mirror Black as well? I'm sorry, I just figured you'd want them masked off. There will be no extra charge for me to redo it again as it is my fault.
