I'm new to the PS90 scene, and looking at the PS90 receiver, I'm not too impressed with the casting and finish. Have a look at the pic of my PS90 receiver below.
The casting looks too rough and that flat black finish looks too cheesy to me for the price of the rifle.
I know that all P/PS90s look like this, and so long as it works without fault, that's what counts, but aesthetically, I'm disappointed that FNH did not use some of the rifle's very high price to address the final finishing details.
For me, the receiver black finish looks too shiny and stands out too much from the black polymer stock.
I tried to do a search to see what others have done or can do to refinish the receiver, but all I found was a few threads of some receiver finishes flaking/peeling off:

And others wishing the receiver finish were not so smooth/shiny and "crude."

Does anyone know what can be done to our receivers to clean up that crudeness and to refinish the cast aluminum surface to better match the black polymer stock?
