Boys Barrels coated
Hi,
I have treated the three barrels today with some special 'reactor black' carbon primer. Firstly they were sand blasted, this special paint used on nuclear reactor components is applied by wiping it on with some wire wool, it's dry in seconds so you have to be quick, after five minutes you can wire wool it to bring up the edges and blend the finish, further coats can be applied to darken the finish. The coat is wafer thin and will not chip or flake and to me looks the same as any heat applied gun finish. A coating of machine oil will be applied later. Kev.
