I just wanted to let everyone know, I just received word that Blue Wonder Gun Blue will appear in a review by Thayne Smith in his "Gun Cabinet" artice on page 56 of the NRA's First Freedom magazine's May issue!

This is our second product to be reviewed in an NRA publication. The first, believe it or not, was not one of our gun care products, but was Muscle Wonder Spray in the March issue of Woman's Outlook magazine (also an NRA publication).

This interest in our products is all due to the talk you and other forum members have been putting out about our products. We appreciate your support of our young company and look forward to our continued relationship!

Our products are made by shooters, for shooters. We appreciate you very much!

Blue Wonder is great for getting out old copper from neglected barrels, as demonstrated on my 60 year old Springfield. Which I thought was clean before I cleaned it with BW.

They also make the BEST home gun blue I've ever tried. Apply to a warm steel part.

Now,

How do I get a sample of your Muscle Wonder Spray?;)

How well does Blue Wonder work for bluing a gun in the white, say a ground up 1911 build where you would need to get bluing in the frame and slide openings & channels? Just curious.

[BPNovum]

That is a perfect application for the gun blue. Just be sure you follow the directions closely. Especially the part about cleaning and not using oil based polishing compounds.


Here is a link to our instructions page, just updated today:

If you have any additional question please let me know. I would love to see before/after pics! :D

I use an old teflon iron, which I degrease before each use. I turn it upside down in a clamp and put the part on the heated iron on "low" heat.

When it's hot (around 200 F), brush on component one (a blue liquid) until you get the desired color. It will dry immediately after application on the hot part, so you can apply coat after coat for a deep dark blue.

Then pick up the part with degreased tweezers and apply the second liquid component.

Wait 24 hours and you can't tell it from factory blue. And it won't wear off.

Since getting inside the frame and areas of the slide will be difficult, should I use a Q-tip to get inside the extractor & firing pin tunnels and the recesses in the slide? I want to make sure that the internal areas are protected.

Also, does metal finish reflect in the final product? Example, If I bed blast my slide and go back and polish the slide flats to 1000grit will I have a more polished slide flat as compared to the bead blasted areas?

Thanks.

Congrats.

[Ledbetter]

I used a Qtip to apply to a small area on the exterior of a slide. Except for the areas you mentioned, a small brush with bristles 1/2" long or so would be better than a Qtip for even coverage inside and out.

[Big Daddy]

Cool. I have a 1911 I built and I may use Blue Wonder on it to see how a complete gun will look. If it doesn't turn out I can always bead blast and have it blued.

I also have a Commander in nickel that I may do. I figure if I can strip the nickel on the outside I will blue the outside and leave the internals nickled for extra corrosion protection.

I'll document with photos when/if I do either one.
