clean up tips

During milling, it’s possible for small chips to rub between the jig plates and 

the lower. Aluminum residue from the chips can rub onto the anodized finish 

of the lower. The anodized finish on the lower is much harder than the raw 

aluminum chips. You can use a sponge with a mildly abrasive green Scotch 

Pad to remove marks left on the lower by the chips. Dip the sponge in soapy 

water and gently rub the lower to remove any marks. 

If you milled a raw lower, do not apply a finish coat to the lower until after 

you have installed your lower parts kit and performed a function test

If you milled an anodized or Cerakoted lower, it is not necessary to apply a 

finish to the milled raw aluminum area.
