I have a Ruger XR3 grip frame that has had the color removed. I don't think all the anodizing is gone, but it's an aluminum color all over.
I want to make it black again. Anodizing is pretty much out of the question.
I have found only one shop in FL that would do it, and they charge $120.00+. This is way more than even an XR3 grip frame is worth.
I know I can paint it, Brownell's has special paint for aluminum, but I don't know about it's durability.
I would like some suggestions about what type of coatings or finishes could be used that would be similar to the original color and durable.
Thanks for any info.
