Herman brought me his little Iver Johnson Owl's head top break revolver to work on.
It needed a good cleaning and a set of springs and some serious cosmetic work.
All the finish was gone and there was pitting over all.
Bluing would have been a waste of time and money and Cerakote would'nt look right.
So I bead blasted it and then cleared it using high gloss Cerakote clear.
I think it turned out very good and brought a old timer back to life.
Anyone else have a rusty, ugly blaster that needs a little TLC?

I'd imagine that it looks better now than it did when brand new. Nice work.
