Plum browning source

[points]

Hi guys
Anybody know where I can get Plum Browning solution or a similar barrel browning solution in Canada?
I just get blank stares when I ask retail gun stores and It can't be shipped from the US
Thanks

Brownells will ship Laurel Mtn Barrel Brown and Degreaser to Canada. I haven't personally used it for browning but it is excellent for blueing. It comes with complete instructions for browning and blueing.

I have a book that has bluing and browning recipes in it... I can take a pic of the page and forward it to you if you want....

I have used the Laurel Mountain browning solution and have always been pleased with the results. I have also used Plumb Brown and did not care for the results.

Would that be Bradford Angier's (spelling?) book?

Bought a couple of bottles of Birchwood Casey's "Plum Brown" at Site Sponsor "Epps" not more than a month ago !

I find Birchwood Casey Plumb Brown excellent for small parts but not so for large parts like barrels. The Laurel Mtn Forge solution is a pain to use compared to the Homer Dangler solution that seems to require minimal preparation and has produced excellent results for me on several guns - both barrels and smaller parts. I used to get the Birchwood Casey at Wholesale Sports but not sure if they still carry it. Check their website.

At our local WSS you would be lucky to find ANY blueing product.
