Bought this snare last year, it was ugly and sounded as bad as any snare could. It had elongated holes, was out of shape, bad edges. So I got into rescuing it, and it turned out looking and sounding better than expected. The finish is an automotive base/clear urethane with hand sprinkled flake.
I cannot capture the lustre in still photos, but if you check the video, it shows the flip flop finish come to life.
For a 15X8, it sounds crisp and tight, but still retains the big body you would expect. The edges are pretty sharp dual 45's, which I used so it would not be to fat and muddy, the plan worked.
