Would you be able to share some pics of the case? I am quite anxious to see how scratches and the discoloration look like. If its hardly noticeable I think I'll be able to live with it.

Thanks for your help on this.

that can recoat the composite layer on the RM35, maybe 219/Andrew can chime in on this matter. I can't elaborate further on how strong the coating on the RM35 is, as i didnt experiment much with mine. I dont think it is no much harder than regular steel. ... 

Thanks very much
