(BTW, is case color hardened the correct term?) Most of the color except for a small patch about the size of a dime has faded to a sick looking splotchy sand brown color.<P>Can this coloring be re-done, or am I stuck with this?<P>Thanks for the info...<P>Neil

It is a form of heat treatment.One outfit that does excellent work at reasonable prices is Color Case Company, 14435 Unity Road Box 27, New Springfield, OH 44443 phone 216-542-2062.Owners name is Donald Menk-nice fella and can answer all your questions.Regards,Frank.
