Does the fellow who does the black paint finishes paint OVER the vulcanite on the M series? If so, the finish would be of little use if the vulcanite separated from the camera body. I just saw an obscenely expensive olive green Leica on ebay, and it appeared to be green paint over vulcanite as well.
