[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 3018794, member: 115658"] I have had good luck with Brownell's OXPHO. I used it on a old JC Higgins M50/FN Mauser to blue the in the white bolt handle & extractor. I cleaned up the areas to be blued with hot soapy water & steel wool, rinsed, heated up surface with wifey's hair drier then applied the Oxpho blue with steel wool rub down for several cycles over 1 hour. I got a good reaction & finish matches factory but not as good as hot tank bluing done by a pro. I wore nitrile gloves. [/QUOTE]
