Let's beat this to death. Dead beat?

Sprayed it with 33% phosphorous accid, let it set for an hour, put it oven to dry and painted with firs spray can I found. It's very blue.

So the phosphoric acid spray was just a simple phosphate passivation?

Yesh...I used normal cheap spray can (ex. ant repellent pump can), sprayed, wiped clean (there is some iron-um-sirate-no-what?) and put it oven. Lew mailed on one thread "light phosphating" and it's done in industrial scale with very weak solution and hot. I have found out that even it is very small change, it gives a good key to paint and when left unpainted holds lubricant better than freshly milled surface.
