Now you have to electroplate it before you bead blast it to hide the scratches? That sounds like a heck of a lot more hassle than 20 minutes with a file and some sandpaper.
I've bead blasted literally hundreds if not thousands of guns with glass beads and garnet of various grits. Unless you're using huge grit or your pressure is turned up to mega high PSI blasting anything but the smallest of scratches will not disguise them. Heck lots of the time it seems to magnify them. exactomente GTC
