cold bluing

I'm thinking about trying a cold blue product like Blue Wonder or Brownells 44/40. I need some opinions on these or some other product.

Cold Blue is not nearly as durable and does not prevent rust IMHO. It wont give you any extra protection. I have seen cold blued guns rust easier than bare steel, and it is very hard to get an even color on the metal.

That being said I have used Vans Instant Gun Blue to touch up some things, but would never use it for an entire project.

Might want to look at a spray on finish like duracoat - goes on *very* thin, protects very well.
