You are through the finish, and are now trying to cut through the tennifer.

Advice?

Have it plated and live with a nickel type finish.
Wonder coat it with the latest wonder finish.

You will never get that polished like a mirror. Even if you did cut through the tennifer and were able to polish the slide, you would be left with exposed carbon steel in the white. It will rust.

Ok thanks for the reply what about the chrome plating i have seen, the gun is more of a show gun it gets shot once a year if that.

I know there are places that do it. I have seen the guns plated. I have just never had it done myself. I wouldn't even know who to send it to.

A simple google search turns up several hits. I just don't know who would be good to do it.

Warning, the steel treatment (formerly known as Tenifer) only penetrates the surface of the metal a very short distance..
