I'm wondering if anyone knows the effect Ed's Red (kerosene/acetone/mineral spirits/ATF) has on blueing?
Thx, wolfz |

This question seems to be going around the different forums.
Everything in Ed's Red you may have used on your gun before. Hoppe's: Kerosene Gun Scrubber: Acetone Hoppe's Semi Auto: Mineral Spirits ATF is used by many of the old timers as a replacement for Whale Oil. Gary [This message has been edited by rkmstr (edited August 31, 2000).] |

In years of use, it has not harmed the blueing or any other part of any of my guns.

Nope will not hurt blueing, parkerizing or any of the moly finishes. Use the stuff all the time and love it.
