i just got my 38 s/42 someone has put white paint in the markings how do you remove without hurting the finnish. thanks

depends on where the white is Ron?

In the safety area "geishert" (SP) it is supposed to be there. If in other places, many people do that for display and taking pictures. It depends on what they used, but hoppes will take it out many times, and just using light pressure and a q-tip.

BI, you might try to douse the area with a good gun oil, let it soak and scrub it with a tooth brush. If it's what I think it is, it should come right off! Good Luck!
