Anybody here have any experience bead blasting a barrel? Thinking about trying to do it myself and looking for tips. :idea:
 
My Knight came bead blasted from the factory, its stainless steel barrel. I like to look

I could be wrong but I thought White rifles were bead blasted?
That's right, I'm thinking of restoring a rifle to its original finish.
 
Most all my custom stainless guns are blasted using aluminum oxide media or fine silica sand.
At 60 psi blast pressure.

Then cleaned with naepta and hand rubbed with light oil and super fine scotch brite pad.
White ones.

Did you mean Naphtha? Just making sure, I want to bead blast some of my rifles some day.

Yes sir.
I definitely failed at spelling.
Brake cleaner works well also.
