Stainless TLE II
+ Houston Humidity = RUST I love my TLE II, I carry IWB on the way to work everyday. When I get to work, it goes in the locker, on the way home back IWB. I get home, gun stays on nightstand. I shoot it pretty frequently and clean it pretty regularly. However, I am having a problem keeping rust from forming under the grips. It has the stock grips which are rubber. I have had to get some surface rust off of it a couple times now. It is very frustrating. Last time I even coated the back of the grips with a thin coat of CLP, which didn't help. I use Wilson grease on the internals which have no problem. The slide is perfect, so what gives with the grips? Any tips on how to get the surface rust off? |
| I had some surface rust show up on the end of the barrell on my Stainless Ultra. Used some Mothers polish with a brass wire brush in my Dremel and it cleaned up beautifully. Some light oil on it seems to have kept it from returning. It's not wet in Alabama but I have Noah's ark parked in my driveway. |
