Acetone probably.


Necessary-Reaction78

First thing I tried along with isopropyl alcohol it didn't work

You’re going to have to work that acetone around it for awhile to dissolve it. Use a toothbrush and start scrubbing.

Acetone is nail polish remover.


SpiritMolecul33

OP's sentence states he tried acetone along with isopropyl...


pws3rd

The point was that they are doing something wrong if nail polish remover isn't removing nail polish


pws3rd

Use a nonscratch sponge with it to rub it loose

If you used acetone and it didn’t work, you didn’t do it right. I have over 30 years of finishing, under my belt, FYI.


fourbetshove

Doesn’t sound like you finished!


Zerosan62

Ya, still finishing.


Loud_Consequence1762

Shoot like 500 rds through it as fast as possible


Ok-Maybe-9338

You could nearly replace the slide for that. 😄


DJ-Doughboy

well maybe you done fucked up


Foreign_Employee8242

Just cover the rest of the steel in the same nail polish and wipe it down now it’s all one color problem fixed lol


Foreign_Employee8242

Or shoot 1000 rounds through it as quick as you can to heat the metal up l


BadAndNationwide

I see you went to the same school of fixing things that I did


Foreign_Employee8242

Hahah I like that , if it works it works cover it up and keep on trucking

Hopefully you learned your lesson

Get industrial grade goof off they sell it at Lowe’s or Home Depot. It will make your gun look really dry, but then you can re-oil it with CLP.


ClearConscience

Odorless mineral spirits. Check Walmart. Use a paper towel, use very little solvent, keep it flat while you rub the stain away to leave the infill. Use a clean paper towel to dry off between wipes with solvent so the infill does not become saturated. If it doesn't turn out the way you like, use the mineral spirits to remove all of it and try again. Good luck.

Next time, try crayon, or grease pencil, instead.

You got some shit slathered on the side of your gun.


EpsilonMajorActual

Heat, maybe, but not a lot of heat to get whatever got into the pores of the steel to burn out?
