Hello everyone. I'm new to pen turning and new to this forum.
PSI offers a lifetime guarantee on all gold plated kit parts, including their 24k kits. Apparently PSI covers their gold with an epoxy coating to improve their durability. Is this something new that PSI is doing or have their 24k kits always been epoxy coated? Also, does anyone know if other companies also apply a protective coating on their gold parts? This seems like a great idea and apparently PSI is standing behind it in a big way. I checked the Customer Service link on the PSI site and here's a quote:
From PSI site:
"Lifetime Guarantee on Plated Components:
Penn State Industries guarantees that gold-plated components of specified pen, pencils and similar project kits will not tarnish, wear, or fade. This guarantee is limited only to the gold-plated components and does not apply to parts that are consumed by normal use of the product. Penn State reserves the option to replace the defective component, replace the project kit, or issue a monetary refund."
Appreciate anyone's first-hand insight,
