| Anyone know if there is anything I can do to cover up a small scratch on my lower receiver? |
One of my old rifles had quite a few scratches so I decided to make it look a little nicer. I just used a marks a lot black marker to color in the scratches and rubbed it my finger immediately afterwards and then some gun oil to help blend it in..looks much better than before  I'm sure the same concept with other fancier touch up pens would work as well...

Birchwood Casey Aluminum black That's good stuff. Only works with Aluminum. Doesn't work with steel. Make sure the item is clean before application. I also use a hair dryer to heat the item up beforehand. That helps the chemical reaction a bit. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
