"it seems to appeared where they have been soldered together" Do you mean you can see the solder or does a dark stain appear?
yeah there soldered together and after polish its nice n shiny then it seems to go kina dull wont hold its shine and like a dark stain appears were there soldered together,thanks.
A pic would maybe be helpful as if it’s a stain rather than a solder line it sounds more like firestainQuote:

I stick with what I posted before. If you can't beat it, accept it.
It would look fine as a groove, which is not difficult to make on a curved surface, with a fine saw bade . First cut towards you to make the grove. Then away from you to polish it. It would be a neat design feature. Dennis.
