You Not wrong HÃ?Â¥kan just talking about different things...
If the process was a hot salt dip blueing I agree with you... it's removal would also remove any original bluing beneath it.
Cold blue, as Ted is talking about is really just a chemical color on top of the metal and certain solvents will remove it, (often without the permission of the owner!)but not remove the salt rust finish underneath.
If anyone here has ever had the plating removed from a pistol, I would love to see before during and after photos of the process... especially if the pistol underneath retained its original finish after de-plating.
In the past I have passed on several otherwise good buys because they were plated...
regards,
