I was just wondering if anyone has polished their flatline and how that went for them. I have been considering it but I see all kinds of posts basically saying they didnt have the balls to try it just like me. So has anyone gotten up the nerve and done it?

Thanks in advance

dont do it

the way it is from the factory is the way it needs to be!!

if it is slick it wont give the ball much backspin

Direct quote from Tippman:
"Do not polish, or alter the flatline barrel. If you do, it will not work as intended."

The entire principle of the flatline is to cause back-spin on the paintball. The paintball catches on the scoring on the top side of the barrel to give it spin.
