remove/treat rust

Recommended Posts

Aside from the obvious couple of answers, what, if any, can a person due for a gun with some rust.

 

Not that it makes a difference how it happened, but I had a water line break and some of my guns got wet.

If it's just surface rust, spray with a gun oil (like RemOil or Honady One-SHot) and polish with 0000 steel wool. This will remove the rust, but not the blueing that is left.

Thanks for the info and ideas.

 

I just used some of that evapo rust on a chain, and although it took longer than advertised, it did work. I was just wondering about the blueing.

 

I was also a little leary about using steel wool vs the blueing.
