    Wow, it looks like it actually pitted the slide. I don' think that should have happened. What type of metal is the slide made of?

    Glockster69 that sucks, my condolences on that slide. Good news is I have taken note, and will use your pain as a reminder to avoid some of my own in the future. Guess you can DuraCoat it the same color as the frame and have a custom look.

    I will ponder tha man love

    ETA: I've taken note of the man love you show. To reciprocate, I've convinced Houston's AG to conduct complete background checks on you, your family and friends. Enjoy the scrutiny.

    Compare these pics to post #87. I polished the slide and that removed the majority of the black finish. Why are the few dark spots remaining? More heat during finish application?

    I would like a dull, brushed finished. Any suggestions on how to get that?

    In the first pic I tried to remove one dark spot completely but that started making it very shiney so I stopped.

    Looks like what I did to my bolt carrier group a couple of weekends ago...

    It still functions perfectly well in the rilfe, but looks like a hammered turd.
