Ruger ready for duracoat

Here the pistol has been sanded down to bare metal
All the old original finish is gone from every nook and cranny
A LOT of material had to be removed at the rusted spots
Any deeper and I would have has to fill the pits. As it is, I will just barely be able to cover them with duracoat
Although Lauer company recommends parkerizing the metal, I have found this step not necessary.
Now I will degrease 3 times with different chemicals.
Then spray with Duracoat
