Finishing up a fowler that am using LMF browning. Really like the way it works and easy way to apply.
However, man it is hard to stop the continuing rust. I was able to immerse the locj parts in ammonia and it is fine.
But the barrel has been a problem. Didn't bother with the baking soda as it seems to hgave never worked for me and went staraight to the ammonia. Really scrubber it with a tooth brush and ammonia, but no way to actually immerse or soak it.
Used heat and motor oil, all kinds of rust stopping oil. Then two heavy coats of paste wax.
After several days setting in the corner I just checked it, and it still is getting a fine rust build up?
So I carded it again, cleaned off the wax and am trying something new.
I have a spray product used to stop acid buildup and that white $#@* that builds up on car battery terminals. Says it stops and neutralizes acid. I used it once some months back on a lock and the rust stopped.
Just remembered it and if it works, I will post it.
But any other ideas are appreciated. I know we went over this recently and I tried about everything but it didn't stop until I tried this battery product.
Will report back,
