I am an experienced gunsmith, who has used various hot
salt blue forumlas, from commercial, to home made for
firearms finishing.
All typically leave a "black" color, will varying
percentages of any of the 3 main ingrediants in home made
salts, sodium hydroxide, sodium
nitrate and sodium nitrite at 50%, 25% and 25% "boiled" at
295. Will varying this formula in any manner, leave a "blue"
color similar to classic charcoal or melted nitrate results?
Thank to any and all that might care to respond.
