A: Hi Simon, Tenifer and Melonite are trade names for firearm finishing processes that involve salt bath nitriding. It is a case hardening process that diffuses nitrogen and carbon into ferrous metals at sub-critical temperatures during a salt bath. Tenifer is not a finish. It's a process, in which the slide is placed in a chemical bath. The result is that the metal becomes extremely resistent to corrosion and rust. Stay safe & have a great day!
