Noblesse Brushed Finish Question

[Cielmerlion]

Hello! Ive lurked on these forums for quite some time and finally purchased a like new Noblesse in brushed steel since I wanted something hard wearing and thin.

 

Unfortunately thanks to my rotten luck and clumsy hands the cap fell off my desk onto the floor as I was filling it for the first time and managed to land on the rip of the opening in the perfect way to ding it. What suprized me was that not only did it ding, but the finish on the dinged bit cracked off revealing the metal underneath! I thought that it was simple brushed steel but apparently its plated something or other.

 

My question is to other people that have the same pen. Are they all plated or is that some clear coat that chipped off? Is there a way to restore it?

 

Not much but basic information on these out there, which is unfortunate since its just my style of pen. Since they are so cheap I would probably be willing to buy a spare eventually if it ends up being a good pen otherwise, buts its a shame that theyre so fragile since I wanted it to be my daily driver. Its now resigned to desk duty.

 

Thanks for any help!

Hello:

I have several Noblesses and I think almost all models are made of brass with a final cover like yours. Your model is named "gun metal" finish, not brush steel, and it is similar to titanium color, grey.

I think the only versions not plated are the first models in steel, but I am not sure.

I don't know any way to repare that, sorry.

Regards.
