My first JR Gent ... Trustone

[RyanNJ]

Here is my first JR Gent Kit, this is also my first pen made using trustone.

My Questions
How do i finish trustone blanks i MM all the way up and used polish but i dont like the way it looks

 

[bracky1]

I finish the same way and I've had one or two that I couldn't get to shine up, I put it down to the blank rather than the finishing technique.

Looks good to me! I had problems with getting the dark lapis to shine the way I wanted as well. Finally ended up putting a light CA finish on it and buffing it out to get it the way I wanted.

Ryan, Did you start at 150 grit and gradually to 600 grit, sand horizontally and then do the micromesh? Did you use wet MM or dry? Sometimes it's just the quality or characteristics of the blank and you've done everything you could. Still a very nice pen!!
