You need to coat the insides with Lacquer. Then plug your bores for the acid bath. You may not like the results if you don't. I learned this from personal experience. You can remove it with acetone when your are through.

Wayne and Brian, thank you for the information. I was considering doing a lacquer coat on the inside, just was not sure how much of a pain it was to get off. Also wasn't sure if you can get it all off.
Brain, that is a great idea for the rubber plugs. Most likely being a combination of that and lacquer. |

Thanks for the recommendation of the express blueing but I am trying to keep this a traditional method. I will be using Pilkingtons solution.

For Damascus barrels, you will need to cut the Pilkington's to 50% strength with water. Using the product at full strength may result in a rough finish as the acid will etch the iron strands.

So I went in for another pass on the barrels and it paid off. The pitting is significantly reduced and I thought it was ready for finishing until I noticed this plastic piece, really don't know what it was, but it was imbedded in my breech and a pick easily removed it. Now remains a large pit which is impossible to file out. Was thinking of sending the barrels our to get micro welded, I came across a welder on these forums. $50 plus shipping, quick and cheap to fill in the void. Or should I just leave it as is?

That pit or hole is a non-issue. Just ignore it.
