 Chances are zero. The vulcanite process required special dies to hold
 the vulcanite in place on the body under heat and pressure.  I
 understand the special equipment no longer exists. Leica is not likely
 to pay to bring it back when I expect it costs more than the present
 stick on material.

Yeah; the present stick-on material is neat because it is so much fun to push 
the "cheapenite" back on each time it falls off.  Really adds to the Leica 
mystique!
