I was just curious what the differences between Bead Blasted Hard chrome and brushed hard chrome. Is the brushed just more brilliant than the bead blasted? Anyone who has pics would be greatly appreciated.

The flats on this Kimber are brushed and the radii are blasted...It's the way I like all my HC pistols.

Yeah but that 100,000 was before the hard chrome. It looked like the shot below before HC and I was thinking of chunking it. When I got it back, I was like "Shaaazzaaaaammmm!!!!"
