You might try wax - an automotive paste wax or wash&wax may do the job for you. It would be much more durable than oil. If you want something permanent, a rattle can of automotive clear coat would be an option.

Eezox will remove any remaining paint and leave behind a very slick, smooth, dry shiny surface.
Or degrease the rail thoroughly and re-coat it with ceracoat or just a better paint job. |

I finally tried it and it seems to work decently well. Much much better than what it looked like but still not perfect (although that will NOT be possible). I used Lucas Slick Mist Speed Wax. @taskmaster86 The Lucas will be easy to take off with a degreaser and ultrasonic cleaner. I may try the Eezox. I thought about cerakote, but this is a real KAC Vero Beach rail. Although it would look better, it will kill the value significantly. |

Maybe try Hornady One Shot. A dry lube and light cleaner. It doesn't leave behind an oily feel and over time will help to remove that last bit of paint residue.

OP I understand you wanted to remove the paint, but did you consider painting over it with your own? Was it too ugly to salvage with a new paint job?
