I use Oxpho-Blue by Brownells. It’s the best cold blue I’ve found.

Me, too. Oxpho-Blue has been a standby on my gun bench for over twenty years. If used in conjunction with 0000 steel wool, as described by Brownell's, it can work wonders to even out patchy or worn bluing.


May God bless America and those who defend her.

For highly polished blued barrels I've had great success using the simple to use Birchwood Casey Presto Gun Blue Touch Up Pen. After application I use a very tiny amount of Flitz polish and quickly remove it. I've turned small spots and nicks to virtually invisible using this quick and easy method.
