[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1826856, member: 24284"] Most 'average' bluing shops fire-up their tanks once or twice a week. They need 10-12 guns to bother firing the hot tank. Takes lots of energy (gas or propane) to bring 9gal (approx) of the solution to 270 deg. For slower volume shops, the hot tank needs to be 'fired' at least once a month. You want the shop that knows metal prep to do the job. 88% of quality of the job will depend upon the metal prep. I could teach a chimp to mix the chemicals right (with enough of his favorite food, of course). [/QUOTE]
