Rust Bluing Results

I think it looks pretty good!

But...I have more questions...Does the bluing solution degrade with use??? When I Parkerize, the solution degrades with repeated use until it is no longer usable. And the Manganese parkerizing solution can get expensive.

Can you store & re-use the bluing solution??? Can you store it at all???
