On my last trigger gaurd i just smoothed out the rough spots and left all of the good blueing . Worked good, better than the one before i stripped all the way . And the good blueing won't wear off

I have to deliver some product to customers tomorrow so I may or may not get back in time to buy a kit before the gun shop closes. They are closed on Sunday so if I miss Saturday, I'll try one of the sporting goods stores and hope to make the attempt to try this on Sunday.

"...small spots of rust starting..." jsp98m3, use a fine brass wheel on a bench grinder with a light touch to remove the wee rust spots and cold blue them. Rocket science it ain't.
