I found the blem on mine but it was not worth the effort to polish it out. The blem was marked (ID'd) before shipping.

Rather than ordering a blem off the web site, I would talk with them. I called to ask some questions about their shields and whoever I was speaking with told me that they had a couple of blems in the model that I wanted. He offered to go into the warehouse and check on them, came back to the phone and described the blems to me and I told him which one I wanted and he shipped it the next day. Excellent service and I am very pleased with the shield.

You guys must not have bought the two that I sent back! Real noticable blems on the first one and cut way off center on the second.

Does that recurve help? Does the air now not hit your face as much?

I would say yes but I can't swear to it because the shield (17") is much shorter than the one it replaced which I had to look through. With the recurve the wind does not hit my face but I can feel it on my hair. I like it the way it is because it is nice and cool, but comfortable, in the summer. When I have worn my half helmet I had no buffeting. Overall, very pleased with the Clearview.
