I degreased last evening, then used blue painters tape to run length wise down the barrel.
As you said, pressed hard, and used a razor blade. I'm sure it won't be perfect edges, but close.
Taping my fluted bolt next.
Prep, and more prep. No stocks to do.
Bottom metal all degreased, and degreased again.
