We are only taking in bluing jobs from our local customers ONLY, in limited numbers and times of year. NO SHIPPING! Call first to see if we are taking in any at this time.
The process of hot bluing is designed to color and protect the steel on your firearm for a long time. Over a period of time, moisture, chemicals and routine handling remove that protection and make it subject to tarnish, rust and, eventually, pitting.
We use an extensive process to create or recreate a new and durable finish that, with proper care, will last for years. Below is a list of the different hot blue finishes we offer, along with a price for each.
MATTE FINISH: The gun is bead blasted, then hot blued with Oxynate 7. This gives the firearm a non-reflective finish that is most desirable in the field. Especially desirable to hunters who do not want the glare of a high gloss blued gun.
FACTORY FINISH: Gun is finished with 240 grit polish, then hot blued with Oxynate 7. The result is as good or better than most factory guns sold today.
DELUXE FINISH: The gun is prepared as above and finished with 400 grit polish. This finish gives that deep black finish you find on the more expensive factory/custom firearms.
MASTER FINISH: Same as Deluxe finish but finished with the 555 series of polishes to a true mirror finish. We can only accept guns which are in very good condition for this high quality finish.
