Using a fine sharpening stone and a polishing wheel impregnated with jeweler's rouge, I'll show you how to polish the rough factory finish to buttery-smooth in 20 minutes.
Note that you are only taking sharp microscopic rough spots off and then microscopically polishing.
Please notice that so little metal is affected that the acid etching serial number is still clearly visible on the bolt after the stonework and polishing.
The stone is ultra fine, about as much as the unglazed part of a porcelain coffee cup bottom.
The polish is a jeweler’s rouge stick that is impregnated onto a small polishing wheel.
Also note that after-work smoothness is shown without any oil applied.
For the concerned purists- be assured that there’s no sloppiness or damage done. The bolt is TIGHT, just not rough, grinding, and sticky any longer.
Yes, CZ should have done the finish work, but regardless, this 455 is an absolute joy to manipulate and shoot now. Maybe 500-1,000 rounds would have corrected the problem, but this definitely did. ;)
Please like and/or comment! ;)
