I had a Trojan rib re-soldered without damage to the barrel finish. The smith wanted to refinish the barrels as he did not think it could be done without re-bluing also. I asked him to try and then we could evaluate after reattaching the barrels. Barrels had 98% original finish and I knew that he favored a high polish blue. Barrel blue was undamaged with this job.
Good Luck,
Erick
