Hi Gunsmiths,

What's your suggestion on dealing with scratches / holster wear on a 2nd Gen Colt SAA (c.1957)? See the pic. There are a few long scratches, but one that is more noticeable. Is it better just left as-is. Any tips on making it less noticeable?

Thanks for the replies.

Throw some cold bluing on it and keep it moving. The finish that is on it doesn't appear to be original so I wouldn't worry about de-valuing anything. Patch it up and go.
