Have one of the very last GP200 cases, never heard on one later and certainly beyond the range shown on the various sites
got it off a mate who was restoring an electronic and had it blasted but they went mental and kicked the life out of it
it broke my mates heart and he gave up on the project
anyway how to put some life back into the case, its perfect apart from the finish

some of the plastic coated cases look good.
silver might make it look better.

a good thick powder coat flatted off might make it look better
