There may in fact be a difference in color, but the one gun I did showed no difference. My Son in Law picked up an Old Belgium Browning that was pretty well worn out finish wise, both stock and metal. I stripped it down and cleaned and polished the barrels and all the other parts. I used Brownell's Dicropan on the barrels but sent the receiver, trigger guard,safety and lever out to a buddy that simply dipped my polished parts.
I can't remember how many times I had to apply the Dicropan, but I doubt it was more than a couple of times. Following the directions it is pretty simple and the "blued" parts and the barrels looked the same, even in AZ. sunlight.
I'd use Dicropan again.
