this is what some police type csi use you, rub it on the ground off area with a cloth and often a shadow of the numbers would appear that was readable.


once a deck is struck/stamped it moved the molecules up to .125 deep is what my old school machinist says....if it was a light strike maybe 1/2 of that..maybe...

pipe dream..if the stamp aint there nothing you can do to make it there...it may be a piece of mind for you, but value wise, its still a stamped deck thats been modified and that raises all kinds of suspicion
