I've tried many cold blues with mixed results can't wait to try this thanks for a very professional video sir

Dr Garry, I ordered your product to repair damage to my Springfield 1911. I read through the directions , talked with you and went ahead with the instant blue. I was amazed how terrific damaged side looked! I will have to use your blue to match the repaired side as it looks a lot better than the side that wasn't damaged. Thanks very much, Mike Calandrino

Picked up a small bottle of this from you at the Knoxville Gun Show today... Look forward to giving it a try in my "dabbling" (you might remember me based on that word)... I have an older "3 screw" ruger blackhawk in 30 carbine with a bit of wear from the previous owner keeping it in a leather holster which will be my first candidate I believe...

Man if you're still in business you just saved the day. Im calling you tomorrow.

morning Garry I received my order yesterday hopefully I will be able to this gun done in the next week or so I will stay in touch

I do it this way, the pre-work takes much longer. Like prep a car for paint. Doesn't take long to paint it. But I agree. This is the best way . Good post.

Was his phone about to bust out some dub step? Love it.

A very nice 👍 video . Thank you ❤️ for kind information about an instant process , hope it will last long.

I just bought a quart to redo a Remington 513t that I trash picked. Gun fires perfect. I refinished the stock and now have the barrel stripped of all bluing. Most was gone anyway. I have been a loyal customer of Van's gun blue for 10 years. I first found your product at a gun show in Philadelphia. Anyway, I want to reblue this barrel. I am going to try to dip it in a pvc tube I made, like in the video. I tried before to reblue a barrel by brushing it on and gave up. My arm almost fell off, working it in with a toothbrush. I hope this dipping method works. Any other tips you can give me before I attempt this process????? Should I maybe heat the barrel to 90 degrees???? Any advice would be appreciated. John Taggart.

I had to sand down some threads on my rifle and this stuff works! Quick and easy.

will this work on the slide of a sccy pistol?

So if I have a ding on the end of my barrel should I sand it and what type of sanding paper? Then after it would be okay to blue my barrel? The gun is already blued

I used this on a pistol I acquired 2nd hand. It was obvious it had been carried in a holster a lot because the bluing was rubbed off in the normal places, but there were no major dings, dents, or scratches, which is one reason I purchased it. I like the Van's because all I needed was a hair-dryer, some cleaning patches, a soft-bristle toothbrush, and some degreaser. I had Goof Off on hand for grease stains and it worked quite well. When I applied the Van's after heating, it ran right off the piece, so I developed a technique of putting it on a cleaning patch and rubbing it over one of the affected areas with my left hand while doing the same with the toothbrush with my right hand. I did this for 5 minutes on each area. Van's did NOT match the existing finish, which was more-or-less black, instead it is a dark rich blue. Close inspection of the piece shows this difference, but I am happy with the job as casual inspection makes the finish look as if the blue had never been worn off. If I had been willing to strip the old blue off the entire piece and then redo with Van's, I would have come out with a beautiful blue resembling some of the old Colt automatics, but there was no need to do so.

Nice Rolex… should’ve got the fluted bezel instead though

Looks good in general as a coating, but it is difficult to tell from the resolution and lighting of the video... can you get a glossy royal blue with this process that seems to never be available on modern guns?

just get it folks don't think just get it I've tried lots of others they will disappoint and frustrate you. JUST GET VAN'S save yourself save your mind

barrel was cleaned with rubbing alcohol, dried, heated to 90 degrees and then dipped. when I put the oil on it and hit it extremely lightly with 0000 steel wool, the bluing came off. . the gun was made in 1937. do you think it is because of the metal

Garry In the other video you brushed on a coat of Van's for 5 minutes (after heating with a hair dryer) so which procedure is better for bluing...soaking in a container for 30 seconds or the other way?? What happens if you soak a barrel or any other part for a longer period?

if I blue bare 4149 steel what color will come out? how long til the stink goes away? if I wipe off the oil in lets say 2 months will the stink come back?

I would love to find one bluefing to a receiver on a rifle

Gary, the gun blue did not work. As soon as I wiped the barrel off, the gun blue came with it. Back to plain steel now. Sending barrel to a professional to try to salvage it.

Note to self, leave cell phone in house before making important videos for work. You still get a thumbs up for a great product.

If you are looking for a professional finish achieved in minutes in your garage, this is the item for you. I have complete 3 projects using This outstanding product, using Gary's process. Simply said, "this is Great Product"! Try it. It really works outstanding!!

What kinf of oil is used after dipping it in the solution?

hey grandpa

will this work on aluminum?

And it lasts about 30 days

What about just doing the slide on a Smith & Wesson model #915 that has an aluminum frame, which is in fine shape. The slide just looks old & dull. These were not high blued slides to begin with, kinda a budget model #5906. Will this work, or must it have been Blued at the factory first ?

30 seconds? who has time for that

what happens if you "repeat" the dip,,, does it get darker or just ruin the first dip???

do you have a number to call???

Please do not instant blue or cold blue antique firearms... Collectors can tell.
