I used some sand paper, some different steel wool. I ran it through the dishwasher with high heat and lots of dish soap. I tried soaking it in salt water and while that did create a lot of rust, once I wiped the mag off, it didn't really do much to change the look. I've seen a lot of faux patina before, and my biggest complaint would be that they tend to look very uniform. So I just threw whatever I could think of at it. Some worked better than others, but at the end of the day, I figure there's really no right or wrong. Even the steps that weren't very effective did contribute to the over all look. -J |

I did the mag myself, the gun I just cleaned, it was filthy. That's a good looking WASR. I don't say that very often. |

I usually use high-temp engine paint, but went with appliance epoxy this time at the suggestion of another member here, turned out pretty nice, a little on the glossy side for me, but it's the wife's rifle and she's really happy with it, just got done re-finishing some laminate furniture and installed it this morning, she likes the wood better than the black furniture, so it may stay this way, but i'm working on a custom set of painted furniture now so we'll see how it goes.

Sorry, I haven't checked this thread in a while, it's a Damage Industries piece, really nice little FH, they do good work, have a couple of their products and very satisfied. |

I just did a refinish of my WASR10 furniture. I made the plain, ugly and rough furniture slightly less rough. Before.  After three stains with minwax gunstock colored stain and four coats of semi-gloss polyurethane.  |

Wasr-10 Original wood that came with it, stripped off what little finish it came with, sanded in steps to 600. Then Kusmi #1 button shellac. Stock was almost white when stripped, hand guards were a little darker-suspect different wood. Overall happy with outcome. Handguards are just a shade off from the stock, but starting darker was to be expected. Much better then the finish that was on it when it was new

I bought the correct lower bulged handguard, but I think I need to sand them all down, and apply some red stain, and then laquer. Also, I need to cut off the welded thread protector and put a slant comp on it. I'd rather have a flash hider though, did the AKM ever use the RPK style flash hider? Looks more like a dog chewing on a rope to me
