Rodeo refinish

[Kent Shootwell]

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?

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?

I am buying, Woodford Reserve. Mmmm, so good with water!
