[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3803666, member: 48072"] Looks very good, great job! My routine for restoring a factory stainless S&W finish is 2000 grit paper (400 first if the gouges are deep), then a good polishing with a compound to remove any irregularities in the sanding, and finally some finesse with 0000 steel wool. I've saved several beaters and made them look near as new. One of them is my personal favorite; a 629 no dash. I love this gun, but it needed a lot of work when I bought it. Had to correct the cylinder and yoke endshake, as well as the timing too. [ATTACH type="full"]281812[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]281811[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
