Ok so I boiled the gun in distilled water with Dawn dish detergent, scrubbed with Dawn and a toothbrush then let air dry and then used 100% pure acetone to rinse the parts off with followed by the Blue Wonder gun cleaner. I think its clean as the gun cleaner didn't get anything further off the metal. I mixed up the posted formula and applied 2 coats and am now waiting for it to rust (its 98 with 76% humidity with a dew point in the low 70's very sticky and it should rust nicely) I'll let you all know how it goes after I boil it and card it after 7.
Wish me luck.
BTW I did this all outside and now have a splitting headache, is it from the bluing stuff or no?
