You are right. In fact, I saw that in some old Leica publication (Leica  
Photography I think) where they said Leica repair can paint in some flat black  
paint. My gouge was so small, I wouldn't want to have messed with it. The the  
difference was so small, I didn't bother. I sold it and the new owner seems to  
be happy. Well, no obscene phone calls in the middle of the night. <G> (He knew  
before he bought.)
