Looks amazing bro. I just won my 1st eBay auction of a 52. Mines going to need restoration, and a nib adjustment. Your vid is going to help me out tremendously! Now to fine a nib adjustment vid! Ha.
I finally bot the bullet and bought a hard rubber restoration potion from Mark Hoover. I got the two polishes and the HR restoration juice, or whatever it is. I have a junk 52 body I boiled and then left in the sun for a week, just to make things interesting. We’ll see how it goes.
Also, I’m glad I’m not the only one who fills in the engravings. I’ve even got a Lady Patricia that has its body engraving filled in with red, white, and blue. Margaritas may have been involved in that decision.
