I'd be interested to know do you spray over the engraved wording Mitchell? Always found that a puzzle and on a 314 I refurbed for a mate I didn't spray the cover plate for that reason, instead I cleaned it out with a pin and just touched in a few scratches.

Your reel looks stunning by the way, as I said in an earlier post I love the colour :Thumb:

On the ones I've done I have sprayed over the engraving,which unfortunately makes it almost disappear.
