Ive just finished applying some custom touches to my KSC glock today. Its been a work in progress over the past few days and my fingers are killing due to all the sanding and polishing. I done this by using various high grade sand papers for an hour a piece and then polished to a shine using a dry cloth and steel wool. If you have the patience you can just use a dry cloth and polish the barrel once the paint is off for hours on end to get a perfect mirror shine. To add a protective coating to prevent any oxidization I simply used a thin layer of car wax (not colour protector as this may make the finish dark). Id like to get some feedback on this so tell me what you think. Just PM me with any comments or tips as this is my first attempt at a custom finish.

This is the compression block during final stages of polishing.

The barrel during sanding.

the barrel after the final polish down.

The slide grips during paint removal. I originally wasnt going to add these but I thought if I did it would keep the two tone scheme symetrical.

The gun once reassembled.

I added a small touch to the ejection port.

I also added some chrome boarders to the magazines and brought out the glock logo by simply sanding the paint away
