i just got done polishing my internals, it turned out great, nice and smooth now, but......... i didnt put aluminum polish on it after i was done. but i did use carb cleaner to clean off all the axcess metal/paint what ever that stuff is. then i re oiled it. is that ok not to use aluminum polish? it looks fine to me.
while i did that, i also did the pen spring mod, it feels lighter when its not cocked, but when u cock it, it doesnt feel any different from the normal spring.

Well you cleaned your internals not polished you should use aluminum stuffs. You put it on using a drill or like a dremel.

no, i tool steel wool, i didnt really clean it? i scraped all the black stuff off, now it look all shiny and it feels very smooth, but i never used polish, i dont think u even need to, just use steel wool and thats it. it looks the same as somone using polish or whatever.

well, i one did one side on the front bolt, cuz i didnt want to take out the cvx valve (i dont know why) so will that effect anything? the front bolt is just plastic anyway, i dont think i will effect much...right?

The front bolt rides on the power tube and doesn't even touch the sides. it slides up into the barrel as its firing. You will notice some mold marks in the power tube. Carefully sand them out. Don't remove any material from the powertube except for the excess flashing.
If you did a good job on the rear bolt areas, just get the paint out, it doesn't need to be mirror polished. You will notice a much smoother feel to the marker, and it sounds better too..
