Years ago a gunsmith friend gave me a recipe for a mixture to blue one of my old favorite shotguns. It consisted of lye and I think it was boric acid.
I used it and ended up with a beautiful finish .... I have another patient but my poor old brain just can't come up with the percentages..or even if boric acid was the second ingredient. My friend has since passed on so having never written this down I'm lost..
Has anyone ever used this particular mix?
