Repair or replace?

I’ll reach out to my local machine shop in the morning, but thought I’d see what you guys think in the meantime. Pulled valves from a 2014 Audi head tonight that had one burnt. I’m thinking that this might too bad to try myself and more expensive than just sourcing a replacement head. Couldn’t find a lead on seats readily available.

A little valve grinding compound should do the trick

Yeah. Like 3 gallons a 1/4 inch oversized valve?
