Suncorite Alternative?

[Ridolpho]

Looks like I won't be getting my hands on any suncorite 259 to finish a no.4T.

What's the next best thing?
I do KG gunkoting which is an amazing product but want to be as "true" to the rifle as I can.

Use KG or is there an accepted altrnate finish to suncorite?

Simply regurgitating things I've read on the forum, I believe No.4 T's may have originally been blued and had touch -up done by H&H with a parkerizing-like finish called "brunofix", which is quite distinctive in appearance. I may have misunderstood this- perhaps brunofix was being used at the factories later in the war? My only point is that the paint finish is only correct for rifles that have been through FTR. If you use some sort of available spray paint you may end up rapidly with something that looks like my Maltby FTR'd T- more metal than paint showing. maybe you should consider a proper bluing job but without fine polishing?
