Just use a light hand, like you were using silver polish on sterling silver ware or polishing compound on a car finish to remove a scratch. I've used it on my guns to clean up oxidation . It will remove case colors when you bear down hard enough and will not otherwise harm guns. Its made for cleaning up guns.

As far as flitz, I have never used it on a gun. I have used to polish heavy pitting out of SS that has been exposed to salt air and a marine environment. It is very good at that. While I hear y'all suggest it for cleaning up guns such as this - I have also been told it is potentially dangerous and can remove any remaining case coloring, etc. CC is obviously not an issue with this gun but does it have potential to damage the metal?
Say I were to use it - do you have any recommendations on how to use flitz?
