[Pic Heavy] Restoring A Heavily Banged-Up Montblanc!

[TLMG]

As you guys likely already know, I am currently running a promotion where purchasing a discounted set of the 3-Step Ultimate Pen Polish gains you entry to win a brand new MontBlanc LeGrand Fountain pen!

 

I thought I would give the following a bit of recognition as it has really made my month seeing such a big change in a pen. There have been a good amount of members talking about how the polish system has revitalized their pens... but this set of pictures really puts it into perspective! He has allowed me to talk about his particular pen :-)

A lot of you probably saw the post "SomeAsianJoe" made about a gold/Bordeaux Douo he had found that was in pretty terrible shape-- lots of oxidation and discoloring on the gold cap, and a heck of a lot of scratches and "matte-ing" on the Bordeaux body.

He grabbed a 3-step kit and used it on the pen. As you know, in short, "Step #0" removes scratches, while "Steps 1 & 2" increase shine and depth, and also remove oxidation and add a layer of protection.

He used all three steps on the Bordeaux portions and Steps 1 & 2 on the gold portions.

He shot me a super excited PM-- I asked for some pictures and I've attached them. The first two are "before"... Last one is "after." They speak for themselves!

You can especially see the difference on the gold portions! The darker area towards the rings on the cap is just a reflection-- the actual cap looks like a fresh bar of gold!

If you'd like to grab a kit and also enter in the contest, just head over to

I will agree that this stuff is amazing. It made a nice antique desk pen of mine looking gorgeous! I had no idea.

Just thought I would give this a bump :-)
