What do you'all use for cold blue?
Just picked up an old Winchester 67 single-shot, and the barrel is worn to "silver". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Thanks for advice! Virgil B.

Brownell's Ospho Blue...

+1 on the Oxpho-Blue. Easy to use and seems very durable. I've not done an entire barrel, etc. so can't really say how it would look.

Oxpho, Ospho-blue, I'm asuming this is the same product, just different spellings?
Got the stock re-finished, and new sights installed on the Winchester 67 single-shot. Am now ready for a "quickie" blue job.
Thanks for the replys. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Oxpho-blue is the stuff. Degrease a pad of 0000 steel wool, apply the oxpho to the barrel, rub lightly. Helps it blend and not leave uneven spots and patches.

Warm the metal up with a heat gun and the Oxpho-blue works even better.

Thanks for the tips guys!
I picked up a bottle of Brownells cold blue today.
Looks like Friday is "blue" day! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
