glock 19 help

Dec 29, 2005 2:17am
hey guys, i have a lgock 19, and the previous owner painted over the orange tip, and now the paint is coming off. i was wondering if the whole"soak it in nail polish" idea works on the glcok orange tips? i know they are reallly hard to scrape off with your finger nails, so yeah if you think soaking the tip in nail polish remover is a good idea, post up. if not, give me some other ideas of taking it off while keeping the black under the orange on.

i owuld do that, justin. but the problem is tha i have no clue where to get it done at, nor do i have a lot of money to spend on a professional to do the job. i will try the whole nail polish remover thing tomorrow or tonight. if it doesnt work, ill try to find some paint that will work on it and will actually stay.

I have a feeling that if i use that stuff, italian boy, that it will take the black off with it. like i said, i will try the nail polish remover idea right now, then i will get back to you guys in about an hour or so. if it works well then i wont need help, but if it doesnt, i will continue needing help.

I just got a G19, and am having problems gettin it off, are you just sanding or ?

no, i put only the orange tip in some nail polish remover. i then waited about 20 minutes and took it off...DO NOT USE A RAZOR. this is what i did, and it will take off paint sometimes. so maybe a paper towel and scrub it ? hell, i dont know, just dont use a razor like i did.
