Homebrew Hot Blueing

Ice · 09-02-2009, 06:22 AM

I have seen Blue Wonder demonstrated at the gunshow. It was applied to gunmetal that was heated with a torch. The man selling it was glib and sounded just like a used car salesman. It colors steel for certain and even looks good but my concern is for the durability of the coating; if its that good then why aren't major manufacturers and custom gunmakers using the product? It certainly would be cheaper.
