I am embarrassed to say that I carelessly allowed rust to form on the slide of my Thunder 380. Now I want to remove it and restore the slide.
It appears that the slide is painted black, because the "finish" came off with a little vinegar and a tooth brush, which I used to try to remove the largest rust spot.
Can anyone confirm is the slide is in fact painted? Can you more experienced owners/smiths suggest a method to remove all rust spots? Can I spray paint the slide?
I appreciate all info the forum members can provide.
Thank you.
