I used Kroil once to loosen-up a beautiful Borchardt that had been stored for years and was "frozen-up" to the point it couldn't be dismantled. I simply removed the grips and then submerged the entire pistol in a container of Kroil for three days. After the extended soaking I was able to completely dismantle the pistol for cleaning. The only thing effected by the soaking was the crud and what little rust there was. The bluing was not in any way effected.
