Case coloring article

[Dean Romig]

That muddy chocolate brown with a couple of blue splashes does nothing for me. It may be okay for a british gun but for a classic American gun like a Parker it certainly won’t do.
I would like to see a gun smith or restoration specialist reproduce REPEATABLE realistic iridescent case colors that we can tone down with rottenstone or Flitz to something more eye-appealing than some of the colors that are being done in America today.

These days I see too much dark blue, too much brown, too much straw, and not enough iridescent color.
