I have committed to refinishing my CZ82. I have always needed/wanted an air compressor, small sand blaster and other related tools. Also doing this will set me up for the 3 or 4 shotguns that need do overs.
I plan on doing the home parkerize kit in black park. I'm going to attempt to rubberize my grips. If the final park job comes out well, I will order some wood CZ grips I have seen on line.
PICTURES SO FAR
#1 is what I started with
#2 is of the grips, left is original right is Loctite brand under coating. The other grip will be done in Plasti-grip spray on rubberizer.
#3 is of the receiver, it will be completely stripped for the park job barrel will be plugged. I also do not plan to completely submerge the receiver. up to the feed ramp is as far as I will go.
#4 The slide this is the most worn part, the end is almost polished where the holster strap has been rubbing for ?????
I will finish the other grip with plasti-dip. reassemble and test for durability as await the other items do in a few weeks. The next week or so is going to be for setting up shop and installing compressor. The sand blaster will be in 2 weeks. I will order the park kit when all is set up. I hope to have all done by end of April.
GRIP UPDATE. photo #5 finished the plati-dip coating on the other grip, I like the undercoat better. How well it will wear and hold up to solvents/oils ect ???
