Default Revolver Refinish Thread

Time to post your custom finished revolvers. Cerakote, KG, Robar, bluing, whatever you had done fire those pictures in this here thread.

From mild to wild let's see your wheel guns make over!

Here is my Smython I picked up today. I had it cerakote due to some bad pitting on the under lug. Couldn't be happier. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1360398548.525963.jpg

I have posted these pics before. But I think its worth a second look. Nothing custom, But alot of time spent making it look this way.






All pollishing done by hand. No Dremel or bench mount buffers. Just a big stack of rags and Q-Tips. Grips are rosewood with what I thought was some real nice laser scrolling.

I'll try to add a photo of my Model 19. Previous owner scratched a number into the frame with a nail, and there was some rust on barrel, frame, and cylinder. So, I de-blued, parkerized, and added a DuraBake coat. Seems like it will be a good finish for my "woods gun".

I dropped off five revolvers at Accurate Plating about ten days ago. The rest of the story will be revealed.
