polish slide on s&w 1911 108282?
I am about to purchase a s&w 1911 that is stainless and want to know if it is possible to polish the sides of the slide? Not to a mirror finish but more of a satin finish. If so, how without compromising the logo etc.

Oh I thought you were asking about a slide from Poland.

Funny, I was the other way around, I wanted to remove the writing without affecting the finish.
I've used Mother's Mag polish to brighten up Rugers and AMT's without removing the writing, just use a little and go slow.
Worth a shot, just not my taste for a 1911.

Google "Draw filing" you can get the level of polish you desire with a little time and elbow grease. Nick
