What is the toughest finish for my gun ?
Black Teflon is the most corrosion resistant without a doubt, however, HardChrome is the toughest, and will basically never wear out and is extremely resistant to scratches and holster wear. HardChrome is basically the equivalent of a super hardened stainless steel plating. You can get HardChrome as well as Nickel in either “Matte” (glass bead blast dull finish), “Satin” (a soft brushed semi gloss texture), or “High Polish” (like a mirror). The Teflon is always a 100% flat non-reflective matte black coating.
