Not Ron, but my .02 cents worth, first chem strips leave a "wash" to the metal and without additional metal prep, it will not blue well....I take a small bit of offence to Ron's statement of a lazy mans way of refinishing, but I know he meant none, but some customers want the $99 just dip it job and some are more drawn to their collection and want it perfect and are willing to pay for it, what I am try to say as a full time gun smith is some folk to not want to put the money into some meaningless non descript gun, and with some folks the sky is the limit......don't blame the gun smith for what someone wanted
