Some guns that are engraved and left in the white. Are coated with a clear baking laquer I havent done one in a while. you can get it at brownells dont get the spray can just buy the can and apply it with a realy good airbrush the finer you get it the better. If you can use a junk oven to bake...
Some of yall have asked about doing some work. Right now I have started the app process with ATF for shipping and records. I cant find anybody to accept guns and turn them over to me because of records they have to keep. so everything has been around me. Hopefully the process will be done soon...
