Early deep 6 fuch correct finish.?

[stretch]

I am looking to purchase a few early, 68 dated deep 6 fuchs with hearts.
What is the correct finish for these wheels. ? Is it just the usual anodised finish.? Here is a link to a wheel that i am interested in. It mentions " correct frosted lip "

Thanks in advance.

I believe the frosted lip would be on the downward sides of the anodized areas where the bright anodizing didn't get the full shine as on the faces. Factory correct for that era when anodizing was done.
That's only my interpretation. You'll probably get others.

Thank you for your reply, much appreciated. Here are the photo's of the wheel. I understand it was restored by Harvey. I am sure it is the correct finish but would like confirmation.

Judging by the paint lines I don't think that's Harvey's work.

We didn't restore that wheel.
You can see the outer "frosted" offset was taped and blasted.
We anodize that area with a soft edge finish just like Fuchs did.
Also they missed the sides of the spokes with the rough finish and the paint line is not a close as ours.
I can't find a decent photo right now.
The flash makes the anodize look different than in natural light. The deep 6 is the small photo.

Thanks Harvey. Much appreciated.

Just trying to understand the subtlety of the soft vs. hard edge for the rough anodizing at the outer lip and spokes. Picture is of an original Fuch in a box taken off this forum earlier this year. (Went for big $$).) Not the best picture granted, but a harder edge appears to be visible at the arrows?

You can't see the finish edge in that photo.
I'll look for some at the right angle in natural light.
