TECHNICALLY SPEAKING PREP & POLISH TECHNIQUES WITH BRUCE FARMAN The preparation of a firearm for either engraving or metal finishing is one of the single most important aspects of completing a quality project. Engraving is usually the last process to be completed before the final finish is applied, so the firearm must be polished/sanded before engraving. Metal that has scratches from factory metal preparation or other fabricating processes will detract from the overall composition of a completed project. The final finish that is applied will not hide or cover scratches from poor preparation — it will make them stand out like a sore thumb. These techniques and processes are how I prepare a firearm for engraving or final finishing.
