Perma-Blue

I’ve blued entire flintlocks with Birchwood Casey cold bluing paste. I use the Birchwood Casey pen for touch ups and Birchwood Casey paste for larger areas. Important thing is to follow the instructions for the degreasing prep and cold water finish. I’ve never had the blue finish wear off or rust.

My MEC Sizemaster works very well for me. It is efficient and effective.

Just missed it.

I’ve done a lot of teak oil work on my saltwater spearguns. Works well in the ocean. For firearms and knife handles I prefer Tru-Oil. Start with the liquid from the bottle, let dry, then hit it with a light 1000 grit sandpaper scuff, then finish with spray can Tru-Oil. Nice, smooth, and durable finish.
