My rather late model Hurricane inadvertently got a couple of drops of my home brewed wine spilled on it's barrel. I don't know what it's doing to my liver but when I noticed it a few hours later it had completely removed the bluing, or blacking whatever it is. In fact when I examined it carefully there's incipient rust in a few places. Over all I'd say it needs a refinish. Any suggestions?
It's only a small component so it should be easy enough, but it appears to have painted alloy components, the barrel hinge, pressed on so maybe hot salts aren't a good idea. Any good bluing creams out there, obviously they need to be man enough to take a bit of physical abuse, after all you have to use the barrel to cock the thing.
