Heres what I know about planes in the army. They’re loud AF. I have zero control over anything inside or outside of it. Shit is always leaking and the crew always looks like they’re fixing something. Chaff comes out I never know the real reason why.

Because chaff and flares look cool as shit.

No no I mean I know WHY we use them, but when we pop chaff I never know why we did it in that exact moment. Because it’s loud in the belly, and crew don’t talk to grunts lol. I just shrug And imagine millions of stingers flying from shanty rooftops beneath me.

I ordered some 00 steel wool. That 0000 steel wool didn't do much of anything. Ended up using 200 and 800 grit sandpaper and finishing it up with the 0000 steel wool. Gonna flat clear it today so that it doesn't rust. Doesn't look bad, but not great IMO.

You can use the big boy sand papers and hit the edges more than you think. Just lightly run it over the high spots, watch the rivets give up the paint first. Hit the edges of stuff. Then blend with your steel wool and do it wet. Use oil with the sandpaper and the steel wool. It takes a bit of elbow grease.

That's almost exactly what I did. I think once that 00 steel wool gets here it'll make it much easier though. The 0000 wool did a good job once I knocked off the tough part of the finish with the sandpaper.

I've noticed different finishes are tougher than others. That finish on the AKs I got from Atlantic...it didn't take any effort to remove them. Taking about the American receiver and barrel.

I think like you're saying, the original finish on an import AK would be tough.

The anodizing on my Brownell's lower...I was using 80 grit aluminum oxide on it and having to work my ass off.
