Reply To: Rust on the hands

[Bob Tascione]

Welcome to the forum Chaplin37!
I sure wish I could say yes but must confess that I’ve never had any luck removing rust from blued hands without either removing the blue color with it or leaving an oxidized blemish behind. Maybe others here have had more success than I have and may have a good procedure that they can share with us. I either replace the hands or remove the rust completely along with the color, re-polish, clean throughly and then blue the hands again. If bluing the hands is something you haven’t done before and would like to do I can post the process up here. It’s actually interesting, fairly easy and fun to do.

Again Welcome Chaplin37,
Bob
