@Poder: if you've got 1 black SFF too much, just put it on the hotplate for some seconds. But really only a few seconds....This version is not originally faded, but does look nice, too!

Hope a link to the german forum is allowed!?

Don't do it! The cooked ones look lame IMO. And obvious.

The weather is hideous - the summer has been crap here. So much rain.

All the more reason to look forward to our luxury break in the Maldives in Ocotber!

+1 I wont do it, too!
That's why I said "if you have 1 black SFF Inlay too much" ;-)

Every collector who had many inserts in his hands can see it in just 1 second by turning the insert on the back side. This "cooking-method" makes the insert brown on the front and on the back, where naturally faded black inserts always have a darkblack back.

The most important point to me is: IT'S NOT ORIGINAL / NATURAL
