Rust and Blue Remover?

[Buntlineguy]

I do a lot of bluing for local shooters and have used Birchwood Casey remover on bolts, receivers,etc. I do rinse and then wash in a good solvent before bluing (hot process). The only thing to remember is not to use it on springs. They advise that it may weaken them. I recommend that you at least rinse well after removing. Use a hair dryer to dry and rust should not be a problem.
