Dan, Now why would you ever want to eliminate those beautiful marks of use?? My cameras are all scratched up. Like me, they have been overworked, underappreciated, battered, sometimes ignored, often let go beyond checkup time. Really, trust me, the scratches help the camera make better pictures! Well, okay, the reality is that when you get so excited with what you are shooting that you don't care what happens to the camera, the camera starts shooting better pictures. I'm sure it must be something metaphysical. Beautiful, mint Leicas are dead Leicas. Scratch yours. Go on. It'll be good for your pictures. Donal Philby
