snipped:
"If the paint job ain't great, you can get that same chip when you face the head tube. In this case, I'd be more inclined to blame the painter for that chip than the shop. Of course, the shop should have faced the head tube for proper fit of the headset."
i would never face a head tube or bb or use a facer/cutter
on a frame after it's painted. i use either an exacto blade
or light/worn sandpaper back by a flat file.
