I recently purchased a vintage double with a very rough exterior finish. Most bluing is gone, significant surface rust in places. I know there will never be another opportunity for the gun to be original again, but original finish here is not attractive or protective. I would like to do something to make it look better and preserve the metal below. I’m considering cerakote in a color that mimics bluing.
I would love to have people’s thoughts about doing so. I should mention that while it is an older gun, this is not a particularly expensive gun, and I want to keep it shooting for the long term.

Cerakote a vintage double?

I'd have it cleaned up and do a quality cold rust blue, maybe charcoal blue the fittings. The wood is easier - oil finish.
