Hi BB villaman (Mitch)is right if you can afford it get it done professionally

iv done loads cold blue and most turn out ok but a gray,ish blue

Have had a few turn out good mind .

But it all comes down to the prep before the blueing

i found that Hoppies 9 gun blue kit was best a bit ott on the price mind

but a hell of a Finnish

Fair play cracking job

Jimmy has done some lovely work including one for me but as he said prep is king linked to the fact that the Hoppes kit is very very hard to get as Edgar Brothers had taken it off their stock list last time I looked but worth a phone call to see.
