[QUOTE="Johnny, post: 375849, member: 13599"] If it is stamped metal, with recessed lettering, remove the plate carefully by drilling out the rivets. If you can get it perfectly flat with a rubber mallet and some gentle massaging, you can wet sand it on a flat surface starting with 220 grit up to maybe 360 or 400. then, you will have a nice shiny aluminum plate with paint in the recessed parts. You can also order a nice looking replacement for it online. About 30 bucks. Just search for BOAT CAPACITY PLATE. [/QUOTE]
