Blending in

[jh45gun]

When I got my K31 I was supprised to see that some one had slopped a coat of varnish or some other shiny finish over the stock and sadly did not even do a good job as the side where the sling goes had a great drip mark right before the sling holder about the size of a nickel. Well I did not want to refinish the gun like some do I wanted to keep it looking better but still used with out the crappy finish. So I lightly used some Medium #1 grade steel wool to take the drip mark out and to blend in and take the harsh glaring finish off of the stock and still leave some of the origional finish and the dents ect. My goal was to get rid of the crappy refinish job and still try to retain the origionality of the stock and leave some of the origional finish if I could. After I was done a light wipe with a tack rag took care of any dust ect and brought back the luster to the remaining finish. I think it turned out well.
