Bugger, lost my bluing gel

[Trumpetier]

Went to do a little touch up on a barrel, but only to find I have lost my little tub of bluing gel. Could someone please recommend one ? I have no idea what make mine was, as it was just a little bit someone had given me a year or two ago.

You want to touch up some dodgy bits on your blue barrel? Have you tried Tea Tree oil?

Fnarr-Fnarr!

I'll get me coat.....

Swirl it round in a portaloo.

I wouldn't expect anything less

If it was a little clear pot with a black lid then it was Philips Gun Blue touch up gel.
I cant recommend any since I've only had bad results with cold blue.

Any of these ?

No idea mate, someone had put a little bit in a tub for me.

If I can find my little pot you can have a bit in April on a completely different note, if your totally re-thinking your airgun line up does this mean that you will be selling your viper?

Cheers Rhys. No idea mate, if I do I will give you a shout, but to be honest I can see the Diamondback going before that, I'm still umming and aarrring

The Birchwood casey perma blue is pretty good just for touching up. Its on egay. If you search "gun bluing" it comes straight up mate

The philips gun blue is a blue gel .Not sure if any other the others are a blue colour . Its philips i have always used . My last tub went hard . Not sure if i did not put the lid on tight enough .

Tried to get it back to a gel state with a little acetone and ended up with a pot of rust

G96 is blue too, if it dries out it can be revived with a few drops of water.

G96 gun blue creme is the best IMO.
