You can powder coat them the color you want then remove the powder with a wiz wheel and then polish up the marks in the letters and then clear powder the whole thing. Also there is powder coating tape that can be used to tape off stuff.

+1. I really like the RG II's but didn't have gunmetal as an option. So i picked up RS's.

I am now in the same position with chipped up rs's. I am worried about powder coating because an old set of te37's was ruined (not straight and very flexible) from, I think the heat of powder coating. Any of you RS guys have luck/problems?
