I`ve cleaned up my vintage double and it`s looking pretty good. The metal now has a nice gray color. The stock and forearm are a different matter. The Acetone method worked like a charm. The forearm is a lot darker than the stock. Apparently not from the same blank. I`ve tried using some special walnut minwax to get it closer to the forearm but it`s not working out too good. I was wanting to try my hand at rust bluing and was hoping to get some insight from all you pros. Is it a pain staking process or an easy one. I could send it off and have it done but would like the satisfaction of doing it myself. I`ve used the Perma Blue before and had good resoults. Any help would be great and thanks in advance.
