On my TOTAN, the metal scimitar on the launch ramp has a line worn through the surface to bare metal. I've painted it gold but am concerned that the paint will be picked up by the ball and then be deposited on the playfield. For those in the know: would it be better to chrome this part or to powder coat it? I've gotten a quote for powder coat ~$75 but haven't gotten one yet for (gold) chrome.
Please feel free to share any opinions or experiences.
Thanks!

PinballPlating.Com has the sword for quick exchange for $100 bucks in Brass. Which is what i did and it looks amazing.

When I had a TOTAN I had mine powder coated with a few other items. It's the way to go!
