I have aged metal with mustard, apples, vinegar, orange juice, etc. Anything with a little acid in it. Never tried it on a case hardened tho.
I have heard that there is some method out there that can actually restore some the case colors but not sure how it is done. Anyone heard of this before? Apparently, if there is enough left and just dull, there is some thing you can use to clean or restore or something to bring them back a little (not like new). I've heard entrances do it if they had to make repair and blend back in. Anyone? Ray |

There's a process involving a torch and cold blue (copper sulfate?) and low heating, which was posted by a number of members of the doublegun site and said to have been of Ithaca's creation.
A simple coat of lacquer or other clear will greatly enhance colors that are there. |

It wasn't the heat method as I dont think (not sure) that restores the colors. was something used to just blend. Wish I new more.
For got to mention. Galazan has what it calls a case color restoration kit. Have no idea what is actually in the three little bottles in kit. Could be snake oil for all I know. Has anyone used it? |
