"Steel Snob M-4" |
I just bought another 13150 and the G-10 inlay had a sticker attached to it and I used blue lube to get off the glue. With that said , it left it looking hazie colored filmish looking over it.
Does anyone know what I can use to bring back the natural black color on it ??

Try a light coat of cooking oil, that should help.

cooking oil can go rancid and really smell bad, depending on what it is, that ever a factor? I would think mineral oil might be better, but I have no experience with oiling g-10.

I haven't tried it myself, but saw this method advised many times on different forums as a way to revive G-10 once colors start to fade.

Gun oil, tri-flow, WD-40 - all these will work. I tend to use a petroleum product.

I'd say take some aerosol parts cleaner to it first then oil it to minimize skin and body oils being sealed inside the tiny crevices.
5w30 motor oil! I really would stay away from oils that could go rancid (food prep oils) KnifeRights.org Charter Member #606 - How about you? Pardue Pimps® #722 Boomerangs 'n Butterflies: An Osborne Alliance | Member #722 |
