    I got the brown solution in the mail on Thursday. I got the receiver done. I need to do all the other parts now! I really like the look so far.

    I'm not quite sure, but I'd like to say between 8-10.the first few dont do anything. After the metal turns straw yellow maybe after the third layer, the rust really starts to firm and the solution activates.
    It was my first time using a browning solution.
