posting a pic may help determine if the dent can be buffed out.
if its very deep...idk.
David will have to step in here.

You can send it to me, include 5.00 for return shipping and i'll chuck it up on the lathe and do my best to get it out. Where is it located on the device?
Ship to:
Super T

I'm just curious. If someone didn't want to part with their PV, couldn't they take it to their local machine shop and ask them to buff it?
Yes they could, but there is a good chance there would be a cost associated with it, more than shipping both ways.
If you knew one you trusted you certainly could, but i'd be leary. I actually have jig for my lathe that holds your Precise so as to not scratch it or leave any chuck/collet marks on it, so best to leave it to the professionals;-)
It's the chucking that'd be the problem. David cuts these devices so he's built jigs for them.
Your local shop isn't going to have anything to mount it up in and I'm sure the cost for machine time would be very cost prohibitive.

What grit are you using on the final buff . Or just tell me what I can use to clean the stianless

I spin your unit on the lathe at approximatley 800rpm and do my first passes with 400 grit (to remove machine marks and pits and to align the caps with the body) and then make my final passes with approximately 600 grit. ( I say approximately, because it depends on how fresh my pad is).
It's just like any other specialty skill. I installed flooring for 8 years and neither of my bosses would even set up there tools for anything less than 200 dollars. Depending on the shop, I am sure their minimum would be less than that but even if it was 75 I think I would just buy another p18 or 16.
