Rodeo refinish

As fine a revolver the Rodeo is I felt the need to shine mine up. First I made grips then went full bore on it. Here's what I did.

Kent,
First off, welcome to the USFA forum.
"Refinished" seems to be an understatement here.  I Thing that "reborn" might be a better description.  That is one beautiful USFA SAA!  Who did your CCH work?

That looks great! I too would like to know more about how this was done and what kind of tools/materials are needed for polishing.

 Kent you obviously are an absolute master with metal. My hats off to you!

 Do you choose whiskey as well as you work metal?  ;D

CHT, I'm very picky with my whiskey. If some one is buying then it's Jameson. One the other hand if I will be away from a source then Everclear packs best! Are you buying?  ::)
