Engraving color/finish

What do all you seasoned NFA owners use on your engraving? I just got an AR lower back with fresh shiny engraved lettering and would like to restore it to its original black beauty.

Birchwood Casey Aluma-Black works pretty well

Yep I would use the birchwood casey aluma-black.

I sent my lower to Ident to be engraved and they used something to fill it, it wasnt shiny

Third-ed lol. Aluma-Black.

Clean well with brake parts cleaner or something to cut the oil and then put on a coat or two. Wipe off and re-oil.

Aluma-Black works surprisingly well. I had a Colt AR lower that came from the factory with a nasty scratch. 2 coats later of Aluma-Black and I can't even tell where the scratch was.

I was going to ask where in SEPA can you get a gun or magazine engraved.

Something with a nice font and or animal.

Anyone know?

Looking to have last name on the bottom of a magazine and or an animal on the other magazine.
