I was trying to touch up some scuffs in the anodizing on my AR with Birchwood Casey Super Black and it just seems to rub off every time I use the rifle. Is there like a wait time before you are supposed to use it for it to cure?
Is there a better touch up option? Thanks everyone |
| sharpie. I've had the same problems with the casey stuff. Honesty, since it's anodized you should probably consider molyresin or gunkote over the anodizing. It's super easy trust me if you screw up you can always remove everything with MEK or acetone and start over. It's not permanent till it's baked then it's NEVER coming off. |
| anodizing is generally nothing more than a highly controlled oxidizing. the color is put right into the metal though a chemical process. however the metal is still porous so its able to be sealed or painted . ive never been able to touch up anodized, ive only been clear over it or completely PRIME it and paint it. and the last time i used a superblue pen on something it didnt work out so well for me either. . what area exactly are you touching up and who anodized it , i might beable to point you in the right direction |
