Title says it all. What do I use to polish up my new m3k recoil spring tube. Also another notes/help for mods would be appreciated - got it and have about 50 rounds thru it. still needs some more breaking in. Gonna run some high brass thru it tomorrow. Also have a hi-via sight to put on - I put a +9 MOA precision mag tube on it as well..

Thanks in advance.

I would imagine any abrasive compound would work.  High grit sandpaper or flitz.

I took mine down with 600, 800. 1000, 1500 sand paper then wet sanded it
didn't polish it but got it like this

Started with 220 grit to knock off then coating, and then worked down to emery cloth wetted.  Didn't polish or take it too seriously but the spring slides smoothly.
