A month ago, or so, I received a "hand picked" CZ-82 from SOG. To say I wasn't impressed with what they called hand picked was an understatement. There were >10 chips on the slide, so I decided to do my first Bubba.
The three hour process was as follows:
1- Field Strip and remove grips
2- Spray with paint stripper
3- Wipe down w/paper towel
4- Repeat steps 2&3
5- De-grease
6- Boil for 1 minute (in water)
7- Birchwood Casey Perma Blue
8- 0000 steel wool
9- Repeat steps 7&8 for a total of 3 cycles
10- Saturate with Aerokroil
11- Wipe off excess Kroil
The ridges in the trigger guard are accentuated because of the flash- it is evenly blued.
I think the Kroil was key, as it got in to all the nooks and crannies and removed any remaining moisture.
PS- Sorry for not including any feet in the picture.
