Minor discoloration can usually be removed by rubbing the stained area with an
abrasive ink eraser, crocus cloth, or a “metal polishing” compound. When using
any of these abrasives, proceed with care and use light pressure to achieve a
blending of ‘color’ with those areas that are not discolored.
External surfaces of the barrel, frame and cylinder should be cleaned and wiped
dry after use or after exposure to adverse conditions. If the revolver is to be
stored, coat it with a light film of oil or preservative. Where the revolver is in
continuing use, and the presence of oil or grease would be objectionable, then
the external surface can be coated (after cleaning and drying) with a paste wax
formulated for use on metals. Apply the wax sparingly, allow time for it to dry
hard, then buff lightly with a soft cloth. When applying the wax, take care that it
does not get into the mechanism or on the functioning parts such as the
hammer, trigger, crane latch, etc. A properly applied hard wax coating will not
interfere with gun handling and it will provide a measure of protection.
