How can I return or exchange an LoD product or submit a request for missing parts?
•    All sales are FINAL. Lod will only process returns for exchange or refund in cases that pertain to quality/craftsmanship or items damaged during shipping.  To request a return or exchange or submit a request for missing parts, you must first call or email us at [email protected] within 7 days of receiving the product.
 
•    Why do we require pictures for refunds/exchanges and missing parts?
Our goal is to provide the best possible customer support. In order to do that we request our customers to provide pictures of the product, shipping labels and packing lists, and box pictures. This allows our team to review your entire shipment for accuracy. One of our trained specialists will be able to examine your photos to make sure you received everything in your order. We do our best to provide high quality customer experience and error free shipping, but on occasion we do make a mistake. This process allows us to quickly respond to our customers’ needs whether it’s a damaged product, missing part or even a single screw.
Powder coating/Touch up paint

•    Powder coating is a very durable finished widely used throughout the industry, however, many factors affect its durability and lifespan in the end. Remember, if any metal part has a small rock chip, scratch, or blemish simply touch that spot up because that one spot will eventually become a rust spot. The finish of your product will be greatly affected by the environment. If the part is exposed to salt or other road-use chemicals the lifespan of the finish will be affected especially if there are any existing chips, scratches or scrapes.  Be sure to rinse off any salt, dirt or debris as soon as possible to prevent corrosion.  We recommend using Rustoleum brand Black Semi-Gloss Protective Enamel (oil based) to touch up any rust spots.  Apply using a foam brush by dabbing to match the powder coat texture.
