I bought a stripped lower a couple of years ago. I pulled it out of the safe today. It really doesn't look anything like my other RRA products. Dull grayish look instead of a nice finished look. Is this normal? Or was it just a bad Park job? Anything I can do to get it looking like the quality of my other lowers? The Serial Number is 965XX if this helps.

Give it a good heavy coat of G96 or other CLP.

I'll also give it  a+1.  
Try hitting it with a little clp (you can even give it a blast with an air compressor or canned air to blow off any excess which will alos tend to force the CLP into the anodized surface)...it'll restore the uniform black finish, and should stay that way for quite awhile.
We spray all the rifles that we ship that way.

 Ok I'll give it a try. Also my Rifles have a nice smoothe finish. This is vey rough oxidized finish. Does it help to maybe buff it also???? Also I have some Tetra or Is Break Free CLP and G96 much better? I see that there is a G96 Blueing Creme should I stay away from that? Thanks again.

G96 or Break Free CLPs would be fine.  Each of the two companies make other products, but a CLP is what you want to use for this application.
