Crenshaw raised you a red flag law
and shop teachers missing fingers ;) lol
Joe, Great Lesson! The Last 55-60 Secs. I was in tears.. Thank you and Your Wife!
I’ve completed Oxpho blued a couple firearms. The finish turns out better than most factory finishes. I soak my rusty metal parts in vinegar for a couple hours to remove all the rust and bluing. Then I rub it with an SOS pad and soak in vinegar again for an hour or two. I then wash the metal off in water to neutralize the acid from the vinegar. I then file and sand the metal till all the pitting is gone before I blue. I use a gear gun to warm up my metal. I’ll actually re wet my bluing with Oxpho blue after I applied a coat and let it dry the first time around and then lightly buff it with oooo steel wool. It perfectly evens out the finish. Good stuff!
My wife and I have the same exact arrangement, I am the boss when she’s not around
Lol, when she's not around,
This one hit hard, hahahahaha
My wife and i have a great arrangement. I live in one county she lives in another.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA true!
My dad always said he's the Head of the house and my mom's the neck.... She turns him where to go
I had a slightly pitted army 1911 with 99% of the bluing gone, I got it cheap because the finish was so bad. This technique really works and the gun still looks vintage but now evenly colored and it did not mar the colt markings, they are still crisp.
I’m currently rebuilding/repairing an old shotgun and I was going to do an entire overhaul with a shortened barrel/stock and I really wanted to reblue the metal because it is pretty dang worn. Thanks for your video, seems pretty simple! Love your sense of humor too!
You said corse metal sandpaper cloth. I learned from my Papi it’s called “Clovis Cloth.” That’s some old school gunsmithin knowledge for everyone. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for the great video. It’s the best one I’ve found. You are concise, but comprehensive while very personable at the same time.
Perfect video. Informative, easy to understand and the ending was award winning. Obviously your wife has patience AND a sense of humor. What I would worry most about is her reflexes. She seems pretty quick so keep your guard up
She's the coolest Broad this side of the Mississippi River
Excellent video. Loved the epilog! I took your advice EXACTLY about the kitchen and doing as I want. When I get used to it again, I really think I won't mind being single again all that much...
I've used this process with decent results. With the liquid I found very thin coats and lots of them to be the key .
I watched this video a while back and then proceeded to reblue two rifles and a shotgun. I was absolutely amazed at the results. I tried cold bluing in the past but I was absolutely doing it all wrong. This method worked times three. My brother was excited to get his firearms back. Originally, he gave them to me to have reblued by a gunsmith. I reblued another .22 Rifle that belongs to my son's friend. It turned out so well, that I felt confident enough to reblue my brother's 870 and JC Higgins Model 30, both of which had accumulated surface rust while in the safe. Everything turned out way better than I had hoped. Great video and great instruction.
Thank you for that
I like the Birchwood/Casey bluing chemicals. They have the bluing and rust remover that works really well and quickly. Rinse, degrease, and start rubbing on the bluing.
I’m the boss in my house also. I can wash the dishes with any damn dish soap I want.
Hell Yeah !!!! I wear the pants in my house !!!! As long as they're the ones my wife laid out for me to wear.
Cyclops, I've gotten into cap and ball revolvers and I need to refinish a couple of parts. So, I came back and watched your video again. Gold, I say. Pure Gold.
Great video. This will really shorten my learning curve. Looks like a very predictable, manageable and easy process the way you laid it out. The ending was perfect - you have learned what it took me a while to - happy wife happy life! Earned a sub.
I definitely have the last word in my house, especially the kitchen, right after I cook and do the dishes.
You had me laughing out loud with the ending. You are my "learn about scopes" channel and I look forward to your vids. Just a thought, we should be using gloves when working with these chemicals. I'm about 5 years older than you, and never used gloves and rarely used sunscreen. Precautions allow us to continue. Thanks for the info and entertainment.
Was that a 20, or a 50???
I agree with gloves...Nitrile is strong and won't get in the way. masking and faceshield are also good if ya want to live 78 years!
Also keeps your hand oils off the work piece. Allowing the blue to pennatrate better.
I know he says not to worry about degreaser. In my experience it is a vital step to get an even consistent finish. Using Birchwood casey.
I just ordered both of the Brownells Oxpho blue... Thanks for the tutorial, I'm gonna give this a try... Seems easy enough to make an old Stevens presentable again!!
It is SUPER EASY to work with !!! I use this stuff all the time !!
Wow Joe! Thanks for the “How To” video. I have an old Sako Finnbear and a Browning 22LR that I have been wanting to re blue for quite some time. I think I’ll get them out and give it another try using your method.... but I may need to run to the ATM before I make a big mess in the kitchen! Lol!
Joe is a Master for sure...but needs a little shop. Nothing personal, but we have a gunsmith in the Village and I like dropping off a piece and picking up a beautiful gun...It's cheap. In the years ahead, gun laws will make old unregistered guns worth BooCoo Bucks. My collection will be passed down and they will not be sold...You cannot hunt or defend your people with a handfull of money!
It looks like she popped you in the eye! Thanks for the great video. Those parts looked surprisingly good.
I have no clue how you showed up on my recommendation list, but you made my day with the name of your channel alone. Subscribed
Lol thanks Matt .
Your my kind of good ole boy. We grow goodens like you here in Texas. You showed her.Keep your powder dry. Thanks for the video.
Good video Joe, and that was a cute ending! lol
Hey Joe, Glad ta see ya still makin' the "Best Damn Videos", on da net!!!
Will Holler...Jake
Mapp Ford .Thanks Buddy , look fwd to talking with you
Thank you so much for posting this you really do make it look easy I’m gonna try it soon on my own just working on getting the kitchen set up
This is the best looking cold blue method I’ve ever seen!
Awesome, thanks for showing all the steps. My son has a lever action 410 that I purchased for him years ago and it has developed some rust spots. I'll share this video with him and maybe we can have a father son project. Thanks love all your vids.
Thanks Kenneth , it's seriously super easy
Thanks for the video! Awesome tutorial
And the plug at the end. ;)

I am thinking to buy Colt 1860 kit to build and I did try to find something about bluing it after so this was nice video about it and seems very easy to do. Thanks... I was also man in house, the wife did let me do dishes, and clean the house, and get dogs out 16 years... Now I am free from tyranny on own apartment :)
We have a 1946 S&W K frame M&P square butt x 6" in 38S...It has had a couple boxes of ammo shot thru it and is perfect... Rare S series with pencil barrel. We took it up on a ride on Mt Jefferson and carried the 38 in a leather holster and getting damp over ten days some blue was worn off the cylinder. After watching this master. I"m taking the pistol to the local gunsmith for cleaning and reblueing the cylinder. It's a little over my head.
Haha great video!greetings from the Netherlands
In my house, the nagging-winning argument stopper is: "Well, then don't come into my mancave."
Thanks for taking the time to film this! It's very much appreciated.
You are very welcome
Joe, one of the better reviews on this subject!! Why? Because you make it simple and understanding for all your viewers regardless of age! Amen! Semper Fi!
Jerry Pruett ..If my dumb ass can figure it out ANYBODY CAN
Your not DUMB! But! You are ALL TEXAS!!!!!!! Semper Fi!
Thanks for making my day! Seriously lol!
Joe I loved both of your COLD BLUE videos, and never really realized just how easy the process was to complete! That said, I'm certain that my wife is NOT going to allow me to heat up a gun barrel on our new Thermadore gase range! So, maybe it can be done out on my deck using my Weber gas grill which hasone burner!
👍
What a gentleman’s touch at the end ,classic great content keep up the great teaching explanation.
Excellent Joe, many thanks. Just what I was looking for.
Epic ending
Great video! Using what you've taught me, I've started to re-blue an S&W 38-200 WWII Service Revolver. So far, I've only done the side plate and working now on the cylinder. Turning out really great. Question though about the frame. How would you tackle that? Blue the whole thing at once? First once side then the other? Muzzle end first then the handle end?
You can do it piece meal . It'll all blend together if you steel wool it
You make it look easy, thanks for the all American content!
My wife has a sign in our kitchen that says “I have a kitchen because it came with the house”, since our kids grew up and moved out on their own we eat out, or we may use the microwave and an occasional crockpot but thats bout it, this makes it a lot easier to get away with rebuilding carbs on kitchen table or bluing guns, hell I’ve even worked on a motorcycle in our kitchen once before I had a garage, but like you did it still never hurts to let ppl know how cool your wife is…oh and let her overhear you saying it to your friends lol
IDC what ANYONE SAYS. I wear the pants in my relationship.......She tells me what pants to wear though =/
I do whatever I want whenever she tells me I can,cuz I'm the man😂😂
That looks really nice, I did a muzzle loader back when T/C made their Hawken kit. I bought one of those and did it the way you did this one. I put it in the oven and pre-heated the lock and barrel. I couldn't believe how nice it turned out. I used acetate to strip the barrel of contaminants then blued, steel wooled, heated, blued and steel wooled over and over until I got the looks I wanted. It's important to oil the metal at the end of the process and keep it oiled, not heavy but just don't let it dry. Seems to seal the blue better.
Yeah I oil mine really heavy for a day or so till it won't soak up anymore
It's been years since I blued a gun, so I looked at You Tube videos to refresh my memory. Yours was better than most. Just one comment: I think I would use a heat gun instead of a stove burner to heat the metal.
Yeah I just didn’t have one
For some reason the eyepatch made me think you'd be bluing a flintlock revolver. :)
"Screw what she says." 😂😂😂😂
You tell her that and you'll be screwing yourself.
YEAH!
The ending gave me a good chuckle. It's nice that you and your wife can have a good laugh together.
She is the BEST !!!!! Coolest Broad in Texas
I tryed your bluing method on a rusty neglected 1893 Spanish Mauser today.What a nice improvement compared to what it was.Now I have 3 cracks in the stock to repair before this gun is safe to shoot.Thanks for the video because your method has better results than others I've tryed.Normally I end up with an aged look but not much blue color which was still ok on some older guns but not the desired end result I was after. For the people who are going to give me crap for stripping a hundred plus year old gun.Not all antique firearms can be kept original when left in a storage locker for 8 years in Wi.
I'm with you man ...It's not like we are refinishing the Liberty Bell
I have a 93 Spanish Mauser Carbine and really like it...But the 93 has a single lug bolt and if you want a gun that is stronger, you should look around for the 98 model with the 2 lug bolt...
My wife told me that if I try that, by the time she's done with me, I'll be able to cold blue my metal hip...
smuckwap ..Lol , my wife is one of a kind to put up with me
@@CyclopsJoeVideos My problem is when I start working on my guns mine finds something needing to be done to one of her guns.
Not complaining one bit, lol
Can I borrow a few hundred I'm working on the lawnmower in the living room lol😂
Good one!
I rebuilt an old Harley Panhead engine in the bathtub !!!
Great Video Sir. I just inherited an old Colt Cobra 2" 38 Revolver from my Dad, who passed away in December...and it definitely needs Re-Bluing. I'll definitely use your technique.
Totally love the final thoughts! Bruh I thought about the kitchen as your workshop and I was like oh boy he’s single. Wrong! The man is wise and his wife has da dolla bills 😂. You Da Man!!!
My wife is the best man
the way I look at this process it saves me from throwing away money when I can do it myself, As using my kitchen and my wife's What mind is hers and what's hers is mind I paid the house note I do whatever I want with no backtalk Or else she can hit the road and hope she doesn't let the door hit her in the Ass when she leaves.
Lol I hear ya Brother
Update: James is now single, paying child support and spending all his time in the bar then his buddies couch.
Lol
My wife tells me she's not nagging me, she's encouraging me. I'm so lucky to have such a thoughtful woman.
Lol gotcha
Hey Joe, excellent video, also loved the ending, you caught me off guard!
Jack Fallat Top my wife I wanted her o slap me on camera ...It didn't take any begging :)
You should have used gloves,it's always safe while handling chemicals.
Nilesh Thakur ..Excellent point !!
Nilesh Thakur And where’s the fun and knockabout macho manly maleness in that? Is Nilesh a woman’s name by any chance???
Great Video, I Love the Ending ! Definitely worth the Watch.
That was awesome. Love that ending.
Loved those final thoughts, thanks for the video.
Yep. The best thing about being married for so many year's is... "You ain't afraid Of nobody"...🤠
Great video Joe. Love this video man, that last bit made me laugh so hard, it made my tummy hurt. 😂😂😂. Oh love the airgun, beautiful.
Great video.... When I have to preheat/warm metal parts or urethane, I just turn my oven on it's lowest setting, let it preheat and then turn it off. If I need it under 180 degrees I just leave it for a few minutes with the door cracked - it's also a fool proof way to melt tempered chocolate when it's humid out, or to dry out stale cereal. Whether or not you do all this at the same time depends on how cool your wife is
The end of the comment though 😂 might have to try this. My kar98 could def be reblued as well as a stock refinish
I recently came into possession of what I believe to be a 1902 Smith and Wesson .38 revolver. It's very rusty and pitted, I think I'm gonna give this style of bluing a try. Thanks for the vid 👍👍
It is super easy , and I love the results
I will definitely keep an eye out for scotchbrite pads!
that ending was hysterical, nice vid. thank u
awesome. cant believe i missed this for 2 years. fantastic blueing tips too lol
Lol I'm hard to find
Great Video A Manly Man exercising your Manhood , in all an informative work
You got the just of all the tricks that work. Better polishing and definitely degreasing will give u a better job. Take the time to do so. You need to have a designated area in a work shop/garage/ basement bench and get out of the kitchen. Don't use those chemicals the same place you prepare ur food.
Very nice job,simple and easy steps 👍😎🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸.
scotch bright then 4 0000 steel wool works great forget the sand paper for sure and the ending it was classic i love it keep up the good work
Joe, you have the best wife in the world brother. Unbelievable! If I laid out my gun stuff in the kitchen like that, my wife would suddenly take a liking to firearms. Real Quick! God bless you brother, and your beautiful wife. ❤❤❤❤
She is the BEST no Doubt !!!
Nice job, enjoy all your videos
Lol thanks for sharing the end cracked me up. I just got a new 1911 and I didn't have it a full 24hrs and put 2 time idiot scratches very very small by the slide lock lever when I was trying to reassemble but they are just noticeable and driving me crazy. I bought a touch up pen but just realized I ordered it for aluminum 🤦♂️ so reordered for steel. I uave a couple rifles and shotguns I'm looming at touching up and I've never done bluing before so thanks for this video.
Thank you very much Big Joe !👍
Thanks for sharing. Learned something. Loved the ending!!!
Thanks Ron
Love this video especially, the final thought!
Yeah man it was fun to do with my wife
If you acetone the steel and use distilled water to rinse followed by vinegar it removes all the bluing with in seconds
Great video, especially the ending! ha ha ha. Love it!!
Great job Joe! Thank you
Great video 👍 I'll try ur method of blueing nxt time
Love this video Cool Dude, especially the ending outro cool.
The video was very educational all the way through but the very end was way too funny!
Knowledge is power buddy. I’m gonna try this on an old 410. Single action. Thank you. Lol
About every three or four months I have to watch this JUST FOR THE ENDING 😂
Lol
you are the kitchen table gunsmith!
This is typically the method I use anyways but you very wisely poke a hole in the liquid cover rather than pulling it off, that's great! Because I end up wasting a lot of oxide!
I love this stuff
Really enjoyed the video I have a Taurus 38 revolver that has been lost for sometime anyway the side where it was laying on the ground is pretty rusted so I'm going have to blue the whole gun, but thanks for the video and I really enjoyed the ending of it, hope you don't go broke, LOL
Great video!! Funny stuff at the end😂.
THANK YOU FOR THE VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO, I enjoyed it. It be put to good use. I do a little gunsmithing and restoration myself
Thanks Charles
😂😂😂 great video …thanks !!! can comfortably go ahead with my project now …blessed day !!
I just used your method and it came out great! Just dont leave the Cream on too long or you may get a little more blue color than desired.
Kick Ass Man , I love using this stuff !!!!
Hi my name is Walter really enjoyed your Bluey and your gun parts but the comedy you did with your wife and kept handing her money was a real Laugh I’m still laughing about it You and your wife will be the best people in town love you God bless you amen your friend Walter
Lol thanks Buddy , She's the clown in the marriage
