My 16 VH does that and under a good light source (specular) I can see the finish is missing. So this brings up the question do I refinish it or not? I happen to love this particular gun on an 0 frame and it has substantial field wear but is solid, so if I did tend to refinish it, I'd probably have Brian do it correct because the checkering needs to be recut. I have large swatches that show up in wet conditions and I think if I just apply Timberlux it will look like I just applied Timberlux in problematic areas. I tend to think a field gun that is in that condition and not particularly valuable doesn't lose a whole lot being refinished as my guess is that it was refinished in the distant past anyways. Just my thoughts. My understanding is that restoring is very very different than refinishing.
