Easiest way to strip black paint from bolt carrier?


Recommended Posts

Methylene Chloride paint stripper available at any hardware store. No scrubbing, sanding, or anything. Soak 10 min and rinse. All traces of the black will be gone. Of course then you will want to polish it up sans the methods in the posts above.

An old gear head trick to clean up engine blocks was to use "easy off" oven cleaner it strips everthing off, in fact I read where one guy was pissed after he did this with the engine in the car. Becasue it disolved the insulation on the wiring and many of the plastic parts! I dont see any reason why it would not work on gun parts definately as stated before rinse it very well and keep in mind any "non stainless" steel parts will begin to rust almost immediately after being stripped!
