Can an engraved metal surface by 'wiped clean' and re-engraved?
My friend has recently given me his old zippo lighter as I want to start collecting them. Trouble is it is engraved with his ex-girlfriend's name! Is there any way that this can be taken off of the metal surface (and perhaps with my name put over the top?). Worst comes to worst I'll just scratch it off I suppose but am after a neater finish. Thanks!
I really don't think 'Jane' would suit me!
It depends on how thick the metal case is, or if the engraving is pretty shallow. If you are happy with these conditions you can actually buff the engraving out using a "120 grade Flap mop" this is an abrasive wheel that is attached to an electric drill, once you have taken the metal down sufficiently, the next step is to achieve a polished surface. This is done by using a polishing mop and a cake of polishing soap, all the items needed can be bought at your local D.I.Y.
One word of warning, be absolutely certain what metal the lighter is made of, it might be that it is plated over another type of metal and removing the outer layer may spoil the object of the exercise.
I think both of beer money are. I want roode becase I went to see him live and storm afterwards. JOE-roode should be the main event for bound for golry, only 2nd to the ultmante dream match Styles-joe( heel) at bound for glory.
I hope not. He is pretty lame. I don't consider him a headliner. AJ Styles is a great performer. I hate that TNA dumbed him down with that silly Angle storyline and being other wrestlers lackey.
Do you know where I can find in London an orange spinning ashtray with flowers?
