Has anyone tried to take some steel wool or some other abrasive object and tried to add more.....diffusion to the stock MR diffusers?

I'm thinking maybe scratching up the area toward the tip of the blade that isn't as bright in hopes that it would make a more evenly lit blade.

Comments are appreciated. Positive and negative.

I doubt that would look good. When people sand they do it evenly. The slightest blemish will show up now imagine half the blade that way.[:0] I can see that happening if it was somehow done on the inside, but that would be amazingly difficult.

How much of a pain in the butt was that?[:p] I imagine it like using a rusty hand saw on a tree.

It was kinda like in the movie "SAW" where they tried to cut through the chains on their feet with the rusty hack saws. It works great, but what a pain in the @$$.[;)]
