Rust proofing firearm
your guns. the first is for blued guns you don't want to alter.
clean them thouroughly with CARBUERATOR/FUEL INJECTOR CLEANER ( i
prefer berrymans) i mean scrub them down good. be liberal with it.
then place them in a window in direct sunlight until they are hot
and all the cleaner is dry. you'll notice a thin white film. wipe it
off with a clean dry cotton cloth. the first time you do this you
may have to repeat the procedure. while it's still HOT soak it down
good with SPRAY SILICONE lubricant. i prefer the original GUNK
liquid wrench. get the stuff with silicone ONLY. it has a small seal
on the label that says SOLDER SEAL which was the company that
originated it before gunk bought them out. it was originally used to
seal printed circuit boards against moisture/corrosion. after you've
sprayed it down remove the firearm to a COOL place. the cooler the
better. like in front of the AC etc. by doing this the moisture/old
oil is driven out of the metal by the heat and ether ( cleaner) and
is replaced by the silicone when it cools drawing it into the metal.
your firearm will NEVER RUST AGAIN. after that you can clean it as
normal.
the second way is for old shooters that you don't care about
altering. you may think this is crazy but trust me it works.
disassemble the firearm and scrub the parts down with 3M brightenr
pad. down to the shiny metal. then spray eveything with SALTWATER
and leave it outside under the night sky until a nice even thin coat
of rust forms. rinse it down gently with water ( don't wipe) to
remove any saltwater residue then place in the direct sun until HOT
and DRY. while it's still hot spray with RUST CONVERTER. and let
dry. the result is a finish that resembles the finish on an m-16 and
it wil NOT RUST AGAIN. EVER! you can bury in directly in the ground
for years ( i tested it by doing this with an old axehead and buried
it for four years and no rust) and it WILL NOT RUST AGAIN. providing
of course that you do a good job of it paying attention to nooks and
crannies etc.
