Silicone DOES NOT contain pure silicon, or quartz, Miller. No grit in silicone. But thanks for the chemistry lesson.JR

 For some time, I have been using a clear-coat aerosol spray-on lacquer made and sold by Behlens. It is a true cellulose lacquer that you can spray on and have a very uniform coat without bubbles and running with just a little care in application. When you need to redo it, it can easily be removed by merely soaking the parts in acetone. I have been very pleased with it's performance and I use it on all Damascus barrels that I refinish and on some guns that I color caseharden if the owner wants a protective coating.
 
 Whatever you use, I recommend that you completely strip the internal parts and degrease carefully before applying the protective coating. You will then need to lubricate the appropriate parts and places when you reassemble.

+1 on the Behlen's lacquer.

 I was with a buddy who dropped his K80 off at the Dupont/Kreighoff building today, at the SE Regional Championship for a clean/strip and check. While he was tending to all that I was looking at guns for sale. One action was highly engraved and case hardened (I don't see many K guns CCH). It had a $23,890 tag on it. But, what caught my eye most was the coating over the CCH. It was glossy, and appeared rather thick. 
 K guns are not my cup of tea, but does anybody know what they use on their CCH for protection?
