So this was going to be one of my little 'pet' projects, and I was going to bam! release pics of it on to CPF here and get kudos =) haha. But now I'm not sure if it'll work and need some advice.
I wanted to take apart an HDS light and strip the ano, using Greased Lightning (pumaman did it on a LR-10 and it looked nice). This combined w/ a SS clip and SS bezel I thought would look tight.
But, is this feasible? I think I can get the electronics out of the head, but not sure about the innards of the clicky if they can be pulled from the tail. Also, is there ChemKote on the insides, that will get stripped if I dip the shells in GL?
Another thing I was thinking was coating or taping the insides somehow before dunking, or even just painting the GL on (but pumaman says to dunk for 40 mins so I dunno if painting GL on and leaving it will do the job).
Any ideas?
