Quick Bluing Solution (250 mL) - Brush and Immersion Application - Gun Bluing

Product Information

I assume that Potassium nitrate may do the same job as I feel it is There are several methods to blue gun barrels, such as hot bluing, cold bluing, rust bluing, niter bluing, charcoal bluing, and heat bluing. If you like to shoot, work on guns as a business or hobby, or just own a gun, this is the place for you! I was really impressed with the end result - far bluer than any cold blue product I've ever used and totally even throughout.

If you "remove the heat from the gun parts at the right time," you can get a subtle blue color, just like niter bluing.The niter bluing has also known as a fire bluing process that creates vibrant colors, but they’re not always durable. Since cold-bluing is not as durable as hot-bluing, we do not recommend it for restoring your whole weapon. A good selection could be an old "pulled" shot-out Mauser barrel, an old single-barrel shotgun frame, (once case-hardened), maybe a burst repeating shotgun barrel, and, well, you get the picture . The metal surfaces are block sanded to remove all imperfections and then polished to a mirror shine just before the bluing process, which avoids oxidation of the steel.

Use the solution in a single pass to cover small surfaces, or in parts no larger than 4 to 5 inches when covering large areas, then smooth it out using sandpaper. After you have reached the finish you require or the metal becomes reluctant to take any more rust, it must be boiled again in a soda solution to stop the rusting, given a final carding, and then run up to a high temperature in clean boiling water, allowed to flash dry and placed in a tank containing a 50/50 mix of old engine oil and dewatering oil overnight, removed and allowed to drain to clear rib breather vents, etc. The use of reagent chemistry is a good idea and the use of any of the rust producing sublimates is very sensible when you cannot be sure of the iron content of the horse nails if you use them. This long-lasting performance contributes to the cost-effectiveness of Ballistol Quick Blueing, as gun owners can enjoy the benefits of a high-quality blue finish without the need for frequent rebluing. Furthermore, regular maintenance applications of Ballistol Quick Blueing help protect firearms from rust and corrosion, preserving their value and performance over time.

FINISHED RESULTS PRODUCED A FINISH THAT LOOKS LIKE ANY HIGH QUALITY OR HIGH END BROWNING ON THE MARKET. They are still sometimes used by gunsmiths to obtain an authentic finish for a period gun of the time that rust bluing was in vogue, analogous to the use of browning on earlier representative firearm replicas. The loose oxide was then carded (scrubbed) off, using a carding brush – a wire brush with soft, thin (usually about 0.

Secondly, it is well known that a well done rust blue is by far the most durable traditional finish for firearms; hot salt bluing, while beautiful in its own right, uses more hazardous substances, has by-products which must be dealt with and gotten rid of, and is far more needful of equipment. The funnel, glass jar, gloves, eye protection, distilled water and the scale should all be easy to find. Soke in aceton for a few minutes then scrub with small wire brush like in your gun cleaning kit or cotton swab or cloth, Then put in Hot water 150 degreas is best with a good squirt of PalmOlive soap and let soak for a few minutes, rinse in hot clean water tap is Ok.weight, ¼" NPT pipe thread, and it requires specific water column gas pressure: 11" for LP and 4"-6" for Natural Gas, with a 25,600 BTU rating. Submerge each component in the water for at least ten minutes to remove any bluing solution residue that may interfere with the gun’s performance. The thermometer features a 6" stem with only 3" required to be immersed, and comes with a clip to maintain proper placement in the bluing bath.
