Looks lovely Doc. Congratulations. :clap: :clap:

But can you tell us why did you put engine oil first ? Any old reason ?

Also, is the final finish as blue as you expected ?

:cheers:

Thanks Dr.Jk, I have also found some more good products on this site. But does any one have experience on purchase from this site. As it says that I would have to clear it from the 'customs'. I want to know the process and hassles involved in releasing the product from customs, if somebody knows about this aspect.

Now Sir, could please tell me about 'cold rust blueing' that you mention.
Also I have found the cold blueing stuff on 'Ballistol.in' hence no issue regarding customs. A 50ml bottle of Klever (quick blueing) for Rs 1550.
I think I ask too many questions but please excuse me as I am very new to all this wonderful world of guns.

Aadhaulya "rust bluing" is not a tough procedure.all you need to do is follow the procedure and never change the steps.here is a link,if you have doubts you can write to me.https://www.google.co.in/url?sa=t&rct=j ... 9003,d.dGY
