Sorry guys, NO STEEL WOOL, NO. NEVER!!!!! get a stainless looking "brillo" pad from "Big 45 Frontier" shop, Vally Springs South Dakota, sorry I do not have a phone number. If you can not find the place let me know and I will do some research, however I leave in the A.M. for a hunt....DID I SAY NO STEEL WOOL ....use a bit of oil and this pad, only a very small piece is needed, it will remove all rust and not touch the blue. I use it on all my guns, sorry again, but on my Colt SAA's (love them next to Lugers) that I shoot it will remove the fowling and not touch the blue. I have been in the gun smithing business for over 25 years and have never found anything like this to clean rust and never leave a trace on the finish...
