GEOFF.223 83 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Only messing plastered it in clear shoe polish. Only bit im worried about it the stock bolts i covered them in polish but the compound came out top and bottom of the bolt cleaned away as much as possible. Its takes 24hrs to harden so going to try pull from stock at 5 ish Quote Link to post
