magman Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 try a small brass brush with nitromoors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plexer Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Or a tooth brush but don't use the wifes. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunganick Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 if nitro morse isnt working then its probably not the right finish. you can get hand chequring tools which allow you to sharpen the chequring up, but other than this i dont know what you would do.

Browning GTS Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 I used an old kitchen knife, the blunt point happened to fit in the grooves. It took along time but done the job a treat. Also finished off with an old tooth brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the last engineer Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 toothbrush it is, a lot of patience is requiredto get a good result, then as Nick said get a chequering tool to re-sharpen the diamond pattern, use the right T.P.I tool though, its mind numbing and labourius work but with time you will end up with a quality job. :thumbs: good luck Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 if you let us know why you are striping the gun then we may be able to give you better advice as some times when you varnish the but the blackness of the grime sometimes makes the patten look better just a idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
