I bought a deremel polishing wheel on ebay for 1.25 with free shiping. I got a small drill bit sdlightly bigger then the hole in the wheel. I put a dab of gorilia glue on the top of the wheel where it meets the bit. And just like that a polishing wheel. The just put it in you drill and polish away.

Sounds good. You could have just put a bolt through it.

take a the straight segment out of a plastic tubular frame hanger and  drill a 1 inch long hole into one end and take some polishing cloth and screw it in.  the pour some metal polish into the barrel and attach the hanger piece into a drill gun and polish away untill it get hot...  this work perfect for tippmann barrels...

All you need is brasso and a soft cloth, that will avoid scrating or wearing of the internals, and you will have a mirror finish!

 If you're a drummer or have a drummer in your house, you can get a drumstick and a paper towel or rag, then ram the rag through. I've actually never done that on a pintball gun...but it works great for my .20 gauge.

for just getting rid of the overspray on your internals you can
just just use the back of a sponge and water. you won't get a
mirror finish , but it does help on C0 2 usage
