I've been thinking about having my RIA 1911 refinished in either cerakote or moly resin, and one of the things I thought about was how i didn't like the roll marks on the slide, or the marks on the dust cover, so i was thinking of filling them in with JBweld or something to that nature before the gun refinished.
I don't think adhesion for the finish will be a problem. I've heard that blueing and parkerizing can discolor around welds due to differnent metal content, but nothing on cerakote or molyresin(probably due to it being more like paint then a metal coloring). Has anybody tried this or heard of someone doing it? Will JBweld hold up to sandblasting?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
