    Glock 22 scratches on slide

    So i bought a factory used glock 22 looks like it is in pretty good condition except the slide has quite a few scratches on it. Any one have any tips on how to remove these or make them less visible?

    The Tenifer finish Glock uses is extremely hard to to penetrate using gunblue. You can send it to Glock and have them refinish it. rue brought this up in a previous thread:

      Send it back to GLOCK.

        Are the scratches going through the outer black finish and showing the grey tennifer finish, or is the tennifer finish scratched all the way to bare metal?

        You could also think about removing the outer black and leaving the grey tennifer finish. Some people polish them out all the way to bare metal to look like stainless.

            +1 on the Duracoat. Cheap way out of it or sand it down to bare metal and polish it. I'm sure not so many likes the Bling factor of that.

                That is cheap to refinish - go for it, I'd say.

                    Is it actually scratched to the metal surface? The Glock finish is very hard, and "scratches" are usually the residue of whatever rubbed against it, and not really a scratch on the Glock at all.

An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself...A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague."......Cicero
