I am looking at a light 12 made in 61. It appears that at some point the engraving was gold filled. Most of it has worn away. Does anyone know of a way to remove the remaining fill without damaging the shotgun? I know I could send it to Art but I was looking for something that I could do without sending it off. Thanks
I just saw something about this on another website. I think they said MEK would remove it, but you’ll want to confirm that before trying it. I’d call Art’s, they’re very helpful, even when you’re not spending money.
I have heated some stuck screws on one of mine with a torch and you can’t even tell it. Not saying make it glow. Little heat if it don’t melt then look for another method. Maybe some acetone would work. I think MEK is stronger
It amazes me what people will do to fu.... up a beautiful shotgun. Who puts gold on something like that?
