p.1 #1 · Leica SL3 white paint removal


Follow up to Fred's article re white paint logo on the SL2 https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1709141/ I finally worked up the courage to try this method on my SL3 and it came out fantastic. Needs a few touchup but here it is 99% complete. I never liked the white logo and even considered trading for a SL3-S once it came out but I've grown attached to this copy so a mod was in order.

It definitely takes a bit of courage. Appreciate you confirming it works the same with the SL3 series too.

I'm sure it looks perfect in person. The remaining white is only visible in photos, and it should come off easily with a thin Q-tip and 99% rubbing alcohol.
