Yes, Wish I had some pics.

Gonna' have to sleep on just WHY the patron / friend loved it so,....I'm recollecting that I weren't overwhelmed. blush
I DID mask it with epoxy, and hit it with very aggressive Al-O, or some of that Arizona slag, ....prior to going after the rest of the clean up.

Gotta' say the Hot Blue colors don't bother me in the least,....but I'm long GONE from that racket, and ain't returning there.
