I am re-lettering my stern and as I suspected, it will require more than a quick clean-up and polish. In preparation for refurbishing the entire transom, I removed all the decals and hardware.
The "TROJAN" letters on the back were also tired looking. I removed them for cleaning and polishing and noticed that they are all cast metal except for the "O". It is plastic. I am curious of that was by design, or of the "O" may have been replaced at some later date.

Probably replaced later. They went from metal to plastic.

Re: Plastic "O"
Mine are chrome plated plastic. Or will be until the weather gets warmer and I can replace with my new stainless steel ones! From Beacon.
