Color fill
« on: October 14, 2020, 01:46:47 PM »
I color filled the roll marks on my lower. I used enamel paint. I used painters tape to minimize the mess. I used non-acetone nail polish remover to remove the little access there was. Now it looks like my gun has what dry skin looks like on a human. Have any of you done this and experienced the same thing? Any suggestions on how to get the dry/white/faded look back to the dark black? I read many places the non-acetone will not remove blueing or cerakote. I also read the non-acetone may have removed the oil from the lower.

I used some Hoppe's #9 gun cleaner and elbow grease and got it nice and clean.

Here are a couple pictures of the finished look. Not perfect but not bad for my first time. I'm satisfied. The logo was not easy with the multiple colors.
