    yup put it on about 10 coats initially and rubbed it to black paste and used the towel to buff/take off. Then I applied heavy coats to a black paste and let it sit for half an hour.. then wiped/buffed it off.. for about 6 hours like that.

    The Army is good for teaching you how to hand polish things lol. I once got in trouble in Basic Training for something I can't remember anymore...nothing big though.. it was 16 years ago.. and I had to polish a metal garbage can with brasso.. so the receiver dryer was nothing compared to the garbage can. lmao

    All the aluminum parts can be polished easily by hitting them with steel wool first then Mothers.
