I soak the disassembled pistol in hot water in the launddry tub for a few minutes then rinse the same with hot water from the tap and lay them on a towel or T-shirt (whatever is in the laundry basket at the time).
Then it is a very liberal dousing of CLP and then assembly. After the hot water bath the pistol will get surface rust within thirty seconds hence the CLP. I store the pistol quite wet with the CLP on the inside and outside.
Tenifer would be a good idea for my Tok but only Glocks have that. The Hard As Nails works but tends to peel off after time.
 
I took it off. I had several layers and it worked well due to the thickness of the coatings. I may do the same again but I never have time to wait for each layer to harden. I have only Saturday off and travel on Sunday back to base and I've a lot to do on that one day and nail polishing a pistol is not high on the priority list.
Perhaps I should start a poll on what nail polish design to use on my Tok.
 
If you want bright colours, I think you should put some true candy paint on it. Blue, red, green, brown, whatever. Automotive candy paint; you'll still see through to the metal, it'll just be coloured.

If you send me the slide I'll do it for free. Just because I want to see what it'll look like :) I don't know how long it'll last on bare metal, but it'd be fun for a while.
 
Why are you bathing it in hot water? What's wrong with just using a CLP-type solvent to clean the gun? And why did you remove the bluing (am I missing something)?
