Blackening of steel

John Rudd:
I've used the 'heat it up and dunk in oil' process... with results I'm so far happy with although they have been small parts... :scratch:

Brownell's, the great supplier of gunsmith tools and supplies from Mexico Mo. USA has a product called "OXYPHO Blue".  A cold process wipe on solution that is pretty durable, easy to apply and the metal does not have to be perfectly clean to work. And to top it off it is not very expensive and goes a long way.

Just my 2 cents worth.            :coffee:

I have used Blackfast (google it) successfully. It comes with everything you need: concentrate, containers with lids for the working solutions, well written detailed instructions and material safety sheets.
