    Removing Manganese Phosphate Coating AKA Parkerized Coating

    Allen, I went onto Brownell's site and only saw supplies for actually parkerizing, but nothing for removing a parkerized coating. If you're certain of the product, could you send me a link for it? I would greatly appreciate that.

    Sculpture Engraving First Attempt

    Hello engravers, I'm new here and want to give thanks in advance for any help I might receive. I'm also somewhat of a new engraver. I've had some equipment for a while now, but just starting to really dig in. I'm wanting to engrave the slide of a 1911 pistol for my dad's birthday. The pistol...
