Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Nitex removal questions
Posted: 12/18/2014 5:52:36 PM EDT
I've inherited my Father's Colt 1911. In the 80's he had it "Nitex'd". It has held up well for being carried daily for 30+ years, but I can't stand it. Is it feasible to have it "deplated" and re-blued? Will the "deplating" process screw up the rollmarks? Not interested in spray on finishes. Thank you in advance for your helpful replies, gentlemen.

43 reviews and not a single response? Was the thread title misleading? Am I in the wrong section?

I do not see why someone that plates guns could not just de plate it basically revers the process.

Are there any firearm refiinishers in this forum that can answer these questions? Can someone recommend a different forum to pose these queries?
