How does engraving hold up with the powder coat? I have a stripped, Lord of the Rings edition engraved 888 with the elvish engraving around the cup. It’s polished and silver but I’m seriously considering getting it somehow like a translucent gold if that’s possible? I’m imagining it would kind of look like the translucent candy orange AC and Pyro but more gold? What do you think? I need the engraving of the elvish script to still be prominent. Thanks! ---

If it’s polished already and engraved then it should be no problem. The engraving should show through a translucent powder nicely. How nice I can’t say without doing it first but I feel confident it would work out. Gold is a problem in the translucents. In fact gold is a problem all together. Most of the manufacturers that I get my powders from have a gold of some sort but it’s not a traditional looking gold like jewelry. Don’t ask why because I don’t know. One manufacturer discountinued the gold they offered, must be like a white ano, sort of but not really. ---

With the storm coming and my house and garage in serious jeopardy, again, I will be on the very down low for the next few days. PC work is at a stand still until it clears out. Pm’s will be replied to when I can get to them and please don’t ship anything until you here back from me. Thanks, MB ---
