Mark, thanks for the reply. I was thinking of a total re-blue of a couple of rifles, believe I will consider something besides the Wonder blue. micky

Blue Wonder

------------------------------------
I was very UNHAPPY with the results using Bluewonder. I did everything according to the instructions several times always with the same results brown/copper/gold/black streaks no blue, I spoke to Bob Price with Novum Solutions and he assured me i would get a refund, but that Novum Solutions did not have my money. I got the kit from "Kim's Shooting Stuff" I have emailed her and get no response I forwarded the email I got from Bob Price and still have not heard from Kim. I would be very cautious dealing with them...
so are you willing to pay $33.50 for Blue Wonder that may or may not work?

What is the most compelling argument, is the end, that is reported to be lacking for bare metal - maybe O.K. for touch up, it seems, but it is a high risk price when you can get an entire quart of bluing for the same price. Or a gallon for the price of a 3 kits of it. While Shooter Solutions will not undermine a competitor, if pricing of a high-following item (as to being the best of all in the durability/bonding category) is vastly less expensive per ounce, then that give pause to thought. In other words, Shooter Solutions' being much more inexpensive - and less expensive then all competition by the quart and gallon - well, that is something. Well liked and inexpensive = lower risk, I think
