From Rust to Salt Blue...

Tony S. · 01-14-2004, 06:15 PM

I had a great time and an enjoyable experience when I did my bit-up all matching Simson. I used the Pilkington Classic American Rust blue and it worked great. But, as already metioned by the experts, I spent most of my time preparing the gun/metal than applying the rust bluing. This was the same gun I posted about 8-9 months ago. I have pics if interested. Off course, my results are not comparable to Mr. green's work. But, it gave me an opportunity to appreciate the process.
