i picked up a used laserII. it is in good shape. the leading egde has a few minor nicks in it. i could run it as is but i would like to clean it up a bit. this prop has never been touched before.

Mercury has written about how to dress the leading edge of a nicked blade. I've read it, but that was a long time ago. Basically, you use a fine file in a certain direction to dress it out. OR, for around $250, you can send the prop to DAH and they'll make it real purty for you!
