I am working with a No.1 that has been rebarreled with a chrome moly blank. I would like to have rust blue on the barrel proper, rings, rib, and of course on the action as well.
Has anyone redone their no.1 in slow rust blue themselves? Could you share the brand of solution that worked well on the No.1 action and a CM barrel? It seems that some brands of solutions do not work very well with barrels with some chrome content.
Guess a reason for the question is that I have friends that had their no.1's slow rust blued, and in bright light, the finish is streaky or blotchy. Perhaps just one of those things, but it seems appropriate to match the solution to the barrel steel type for best results.
Thanks,
