Bolt Stripping Suggestions SKS

[plinker]

Many years ago when I purchased my SKS I had the option of purchasing one with the black finished bolt or the plain steel bolt. I went with the black finish thinking I would just strip it down if I wanted to change the look.

Any suggestion on stripping and buffing? Does the final product turn out as expected?

Thanks for any advice.

SKS; I'd guess its the painted black bolt

ACETONE!

oh and if you're going to buff something, dont use a dremel

I stripped the bolt and carrier on my 1950 Russian refurb. It's tough, but it's just paint. I used Readi-Strip, a non-toxic paint remover. I let it soak overnight, used a brass-wire wheel, some steel wool and then some Nevr Dull polishing wool. You can find that all at a local hardware store. The result:

That's it, it's painted black. Thanks for the advise on how to strip and finish it.
