Okay as promised, here are the after pictures...it pained me to take these. You cant see the frame damge very well in the pictures, in person they are discolored and rough to the touch from the coating being burned away.
After the whole mess cooled, I was able to get the melted boot off the frame.
I have heard back from both George and Jimmy and they are both going to help me get a replacement skate at reduced prices. That is going above and beyond in the customer service department. So I would just like to add my +1 to all the posts here about how awesome both of these companies are.
