How to fluff and buff some AR15s?

[dom1104]

So I am going to go to the 1500 here in Jan, and walk around with my AR15 on my back and see if I can make some $$$.

How do I make it really pop?

Oil it with some sort of seal blubber? Secret Cleaning Sauce?

Basically, I am not a "Clean my guns to make them look nice" guy..... how do I make an old worn out Daniel Defense carbine look worth a ton of caysh?

Thanks in advance.

Pretty much if it looks like an AR, it's now worth a ton of cash.

Personally, I'd clean it but leave any marks visible. Just wipe it down lightly with oil.

I am down with the bejeweling!

Is it cool if it spells something manly and chest puffy like "INFIDEL" in pink / white and purple?

clearly label it and put your high end price on a placard prominently displayed.

I don't think there is anything more powerful than letting everyone know it's for sale, what it is and how much all in a 3 second read. It opens up your market a TON. If you don't clearly mark it all the dealers will offer you like $25 for it and all the panic buyers won't have the gumption to ask you about it.

Offer it up with a free jar of Vasoline

Right. I figure a dowel down the barrel with a big ol white cardboard sign.

To stand out from the crowd, DON'T carry it over your shoulder so it smacks everyone behind you in the head. By not doing this you will be different than most of the zipperheads you have to follow.

Other than that, clean the mud off of it and let the scars show. I like my women and my AR's a little on the trashy side.

i would say rem oil does neither very well, at least in my experience...

A real man never cleans his AR.

Bring an auctioneer with you....that will help draw a crowd and drive the price up.

Agree, it may be gone before you get 5 parking spots away from your car.

If you were really good....you'd have gotten this put on it initially...to drive up the price even higher!

Just light coat of oil. if you can see your finger print after touching you used to much.

To get attention.........make it smell like beer or hot sauce.

And there we have it, beer or hot sauce aromatic Remoil.

Betcha want some now!

Put a camo coating on it, that'll do the trick. Guy down the road does it for 225 for AR's

If you want attention put an unbelievable price on it, like what it was truely worth as of a month ago.
