Was that all cold blueing chemicals youve shown. If so is it a smelly process, ie' can you cold blue in the house with out stinking the place up.
Thanks

The oxynate 84 is for stainless, have not tried it yet, have a 1911 of my own to do If I ever get out of the bush. The others are traditional Hot Caustic, homemade formula. No, don't try that in the house. The nitre salts are for nitre (heat) bluing, you can just use plain kno3 for that but this stuff has a lower melting point and is easier to get the color you want.

If you dont mind my asking, where did you get that epoxy mold release? something in a spray can sounds much better then my current shoepolish method

Will be my go everywhere bush gun, hope to take a blackie with it this spring.

I was originally putting it into that Boyds stock but changed my mind

Basically a bandaid, under the tape is epoxy to fill in chips and the tape keeps it flat so you don't have a big glob to file off after the clear epoxy cures. Dents were removed with steam but the stock was very beat up and full of chips and gouges.
