Thread: Re bluing issues

Hey guys,

Tried to re blue the brno 223 with Birchwood cold blue and it came out crap. A rusty type of colour. I put it down to my preparation as the trigger/guard came out really good. So I will heat the barrel in oven or with blow drier and make sure the surface is well polished and De greased well before applying the bluing. I didn't notice any quick change on applying it the first time. Any tips before I have another crack next week?

Does anyone know someone in Auckland that does a good job? May be an option that I have to consider.

Cheers,

Rusky.
