Factory Glock slides are carbon steel, not stainless steel. I don’t remember the exact composition of the steel.
Since 2011, Glock has used Melonite as the metal treatment for the slide. Before that they used Tenifer. The two finishes are very similar, but the EPA likes the chemicals used in Melonite a lot more than they liked the ones used in Tenifer.
Melonite is a proprietary nitride process licensed by Kolene.
I personally don't like the Gen 4 glocks due to the finish scratching but also because it was alot more slick than the Gen 3's in my opinion
what glock?
The best thing you can try is 0000 steel wool and automatic transmission fluid I was showed this method by a master gunsmith and it works great is it going to fix the finish maybe maybe not but I have used it for years and have always been pleased with the results. If it doesn't work your only out around $10 maybe$15 in today's economy, hold on to it because it works awesome for a lot of different issues and fyi I have never had 0000 steel wool scratch or leave mark's on any finish not even high polish stainless.
P/S automatic transmission fluid is the absolute best gun oil I have used.
