Gun Metal Polish — Professional-Grade Cleaner & Shine Restorer | SKU: 100016012
Bring dull, tarnished, or carbon-stained firearm finishes back to life with Gun Metal Polish (SKU: 100016012)—a professional-grade polish formulated to clean, brighten, and protect gun metals in one easy step. Whether you’re refreshing a favorite range pistol, detailing a safe queen, or maintaining a working rifle, this polish removes light oxidation, carbon discoloration, fingerprints, and haze while leaving a thin protective barrier that resists moisture and handling marks.
Why This Gun Metal Polish Stands Out
Cleans + Polishes + Protects: One-step formula that lifts residue and micro-oxidation, restores gloss/luster, and leaves a light protective film.
Safe on Common Gun Metals: Designed for blued steel, stainless steel, nickel, and chrome metalwork.
Carbon & Fingerprint Eraser: Quickly clears smudges and carbon film from slides, barrels, bolt carriers, and small external parts.
Micro-Abrasive Finishers: Fine polishing agents brighten without aggressive cutting—ideal for routine cosmetic maintenance.
Residue-Free Wipe-Off: Easy hand application; buffs to a mirror-like sheen with minimal effort.
Moisture Resistance: Protective layer helps repel humidity and handling salts between full clean/lube cycles.
Note: Always test on an inconspicuous spot. Not intended for coated or painted finishes such as Cerakote®, anodized aluminum, PVD, DLC, or polymer frames. Avoid matte bead-blast textures you wish to keep non-glossy.

What It Does (and Doesn’t)
Removes: Light oxidation, fingerprint salts, haze, minor water spots, and carbon sheen on exterior metal.
Restores: Depth and uniformity of bright stainless and nickel; crisp shine to polished blued flats.
Protects: Leaves a micro-thin barrier that resists fingerprints and moisture.
Doesn’t: Replace a full carbon/lead/copper bore solvent; it’s for exterior metal and cosmetic touch-ups.
How to Use (Quick Guide)
Unload & Verify Clear: Remove magazine, open action, and visually/physically inspect chamber—no exceptions.
Prep the Surface: Wipe loose dust and oil. The surface should be clean and dry.
Apply Sparingly: Put a pea-sized amount on a soft, clean microfiber or gun cloth.
Work in Light Circles: Use gentle pressure on metal areas you want to brighten; avoid roll marks you want to keep sharp.
Buff to Shine: Flip to a clean section of cloth and buff until residue disappears and the finish pops.
Final Protect: Leave the ultra-thin protective layer; do not over-wipe. Reapply as needed after heavy handling.
Tip: For intricate parts (e.g., triggers, hammers), use a cotton swab to control application and keep polish off non-metal areas.
Where It Works Best
Slides & Frames (metal): Polished flats on 1911s, stainless carry pistols, and revolver cylinders.
Barrels & Mag Tubes: Exterior sheen restoration on handguns and shotguns.
Small Parts: Safeties, mag releases, bolt handles, and exposed screws.
Display & Collection Care: Safe queens and show pieces that benefit from a bright, uniform finish between full services.
Best Practices & Finish Safety
Blued Steel: Use very light pressure—bluing is a controlled oxide; aggressive rubbing can thin it.
Stainless/Nickel/Chrome: Polish brings out mirror finishes quickly; avoid edges you intend to keep lightly brushed.
Coated/Matte Finishes: Do not use on Cerakote®, anodized aluminum, painted parts, or bead-blasted/matte textures you want to remain flat.
Wood/Polymer Adjacent: Mask or avoid contact with stocks, grips, or polymer frames.
Storage & Handling
Keep Sealed: Close cap tightly to prevent drying.
Store Cool & Dry: Avoid direct sunlight and high heat.
Cloth Care: Wash microfibers separately to avoid cross-contamination with grit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this remove rust?
A: It addresses light surface oxidation and haze. For active rust or pitting, use dedicated rust removers and neutralize before finishing with polish.
Q: Is it safe on blued guns?
A: Yes—when used sparingly with gentle pressure. Always spot test and avoid aggressive rubbing on high edges and roll marks.
Q: Can I use it inside the bore?
A: No. This is a cosmetic metal polish for external surfaces. Use bore-specific solvents and jags/patches for barrel interiors.
Q: Will it harm Cerakote® or anodize?
A: Do not use on coated or painted finishes; polishing agents can alter sheen or remove color.
Q: How often should I polish?
A: As needed—after handling, before storage, or pre-show. Over-polishing isn’t necessary; a little goes a long way.
