    Don't forget to remove the striker channel liner if you are using the heat method instead of air cure. Worth saving the possibility of it melting, otherwise decent technique.

    • @CaptainBerz

      I only use 100ish degrees, which will not melt it. But great point. Thanks for watching!

      @@CaptainBerz You are right that it would "most likely" not hurt it, but not everyone is as familiar with the tools and then techniques of even heat distribution, so for me better safe than sorry. The Firing Pin Channel Liner SP01148 replacements can be found for 5-7$ online. But atm it might be better to remove than count on getting one replaced if you only have the one firearm.

      CaptainBerz Should say Glock slide paint prep. I was wondering why you were leaving on your decals while taping your slide. Only after you reveal your not actually painting.
      And instead of taping your sights they should just be removed.

    • @Digitallifeconcepts
      @Digitallifeconcepts 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Very good point. With an " Air Cure," it wouldn't have been an issue, but Definitely should be mentioned for a bake, even at a "low" temp since the channel liner is thermoplastic. Even if you can't afford the right tool, a 5/16 will thread and remove..but will also probably destroy the current one, but they're $5 so worth replacing rather than trying to remove a blob of melted plastic and delaying your Mod/Build.

      Cassidy, you should be a designer, it would be awesome. All cars would be the same color, all clothes we wear would be required to be drab grey, and all our homes would be the same color according the neighborhood you live in. Down with freedom of expression!! DERP.

    Thanks for the fantastic video. If you need parts, I get top shelf parts for my Glock at close to wholesale prices from spectresupply2 on ebay and spectresupply1 on Gunbroker. They have way more parts on ebay, but things like frames on Gunbroker. I've bought tons of parts from them. They buy out big manufacturers' overstock and then sell it for a huge discount. Probably once a month or so, I check them out - they're always getting new stuff. They also have 1911, AK, Sig and other parts.
