Nice, I want to do that but I don't have a dremel or steelwool and my parents would not believe what I was doing.

i done all 5 of my tippmanns. i use 220 sandpaper for for the first bit, then go to 600. once that is done, i oil it, clean it, and use the oil to get all the bits out. i do that 3 times. then i buff it with a clean rag. then i oil again and put it back together. you'll get a super smooth, clean finish this way.

I usually start with a 200 grit automotive sandpaper (depending on the initial surface), move to 400, 600, 1000, 2000, and then I go over it once or twice with an aluminium polish. stock bolt and powertube from my carbine.  ------------- - .68 Carbine - Factory F/A (sale pending) - .68 Special I dont fire warning shots |

I used mothers aluminium and mag polish. I also used this green stuff that came with my moms dremel kit. Its also for polishing metal. I used alot off the polishing bits. I had to run to home depot and get some more to finish. ------------- 98c Double trigger Responce trigger expansion chamber 14" J&J Ceramic rocketcock 2 polished internals Soon to come: Barrel shroud(haven't determined one yet) Magazine Collapsable stock |

Dis you see any sort of difference after the polish? I was just wondering exactly how much I am supposed to sand off. ------------- Founder of the "Forumers Against the Ugly Woman Sigs" also known as FAUWS. |

you certainly dont have to. But after I hit about 2000 grit, I follow it up with mothers aluminium and mag wheel polish. Nigel F ------------- - .68 Carbine - Factory F/A (sale pending) - .68 Special I dont fire warning shots |

Your velocity will go up after polishing if you did it right. Your not trying to sand off anything but the paint. -------------

sorry, I should have been more specific. That used to be my stock bolt. Its still the same bolt technically. I didnt want anyone to think it was an aftermarket piece.
