Not sure what section of the forum to post this one, but here goes. I have a pistol that has had all of it's proofs, serials and the DWM logo on the toggle filled with that white junk used to make them stand out in photos. I've tried WD-40 (my universal solvent!) and Hoppes and it doesn't want to come out. Is there a solvent that removes this stuff and won't damage blueing, or do I have to scrape it out? Does anybody but me think this detracts from the look of a Luger?
