*sigh* I don't know anymore. It seems like everyone has a different way to make there's look perfect but when I try to follow their directions I wind up with a gray mess.

I've tried that Blue Wonder stuff and all it did was turn the gun gray, rust bluing again gray I just do not understand what I'm doing wrong. I follow the directions, watch video's, ask tons of questions to the people who I see do awesome work and I get .... gray. I've been working on this since Monday afternoon and have ever gotten up in the middle of the night to boil and card it and still all I get is gray. I'm beginning to get a little frustrated at this point as you can well imagine and am thinking of just striping it down and spray painting the damn thing!

I just applied the 9th coat and if it doesn't work I don't know what I'm going to do. The color is even and all the parts match its just they're this damn gray color! I'm actually hoping it turns coal black again cause this time I'll leave it alone.
