Default Engraving over laser etching?

Has anyone here ever had a skilled engraver go over the faded laser etching on a stainless revolver (such as a 625) so that it looks more like the roll marking seen on earlier models? If so, how did it turn out???

hehe I really hope you get an answer for this. I was just now thinking if it would be possible to polish out the laser etched logo and get an engraver to redo it.

Default I hate laser engraving/etching

Many complain about MIM parts, which I do not really mind that much, but what really hurts is all those wonderful pre-lock stainless 90's Smiths with that awful laser engraving!
