Hot Blueing Questions

[SPRINGFIELDM141972]

Just a note of thanks to all who had an input here.

I had great success with my first "hot blue". The quality of the black/blue using the "homemade formula" was as good as any I seen on factory re-blues.

As usual the members on this forum are a world of help.

Kind Regards,

Everett

Everett,

have any pictures of the blueing work?

[SPRINGFIELDM141972]

I'll try to get a picture of the revolver tonight and post it tomorrow. I do not have a before polish picture. I wish i would remember to start taking pictures before hand. Anyway, I am happy with the results.

[SPRINGFIELDM141972]

I wasn't able to load the pictures yesterday, but I have one to try today.



This was the only picture that did the work any justice.

I tried to get some up close pictures but the oil on the revolver messed with pictures.

Again, Thanks for the assistance

Everett,

I think that would look good with a set of ivorex grips properly fit.

I agree I thinkthe deep blue lustre is nice. You done good.

[SPRINGFIELDM141972]

Yeah it turned out nice with the grips.

Sorry its a little blurry. I'm not a photographer

Everett,

those two look good. How hard was the ivorex to work with?

[SPRINGFIELDM141972]

I was surprised. It worked down like bone. I was expecting it to load up my files like plastics normally do. I had no with loading at all. Thanks again for setting me up with those.
