Hello folks,
People ask me why the color of our grips and handguards fades with age and that is a function of the thin liquid oil/wax finish I put on them. When I make a grip or handguard, it comes out a mold and then I need to sand it to get rid of seams. From there I blast it and just about any color winds up turning very white. To bring back the color, a top coat needs to be applied. I used to use Sno Seal, which works fantastic but after several thousand grips, it was too tough on my hands to work so I had to move to a liquid oil/wax finish that dries out over time. I would definitely recommend that you folks use Atsko Sno Seal if you want the color to come out and stay out plus it does a great job on sealing boots 🙂
Also, you can also use any light wax you want such as shoe or boot polish – just be sure it has wax in it. Lot’s of guys use black polish, a color close to what they want or a neutral to just bring out the color of the plastic. Heavy floor wax does not work well – it’s way too thick – don’t use that.
I hope this helps you out.
