Strawing question

Is strawing more than a surface finish ? I understand that blueing is a type of controlled rusting of the surface of the metal, but I've no idea how deep a straw finish is.

The practical aspect of the question is that I wonder what finish you're left with if you chemically removed blueing from a previously strawed part ?

Not that I'm desperately hoping or anything [img]smile.gif[/img]
