44/40 has long been a benchmark in the cold-blue industry and Brownells is pleased to have acquired the original, high-speed formula and its renowned name, reintroducing it to its dedicated users. The bluing action of 44/40 is remarkably efficient; simply moisten a patch with 44/40, apply it and immediately remove it with a dry patch. The coloring process occurs instantaneously, with the color penetrating deeply into the metal for a durable finish. Extended soaking or rubbing is unnecessary. Surface preparation is straightforward; for scratches, clean and degrease as usual, then apply 44/40. For bluing external or internal components, the process is equally simple - achieve the desired surface finish, clean it and apply 44/40 with the wipe-on, wipe-off method. 44/40 performs exceptionally well. Additionally, it is versatile for other shop tasks. Its rapid action and dark color make 44/40 an excellent alternative to traditional layout fluids. It quickly darkens steel, enhancing the visibility of layout lines without surface build-up that could interfere with dimension readings and it does not peel or flake. Coat lathe and cutting tools before sharpening to clearly see grinding areas. Use 44/40 to age brass and copper in restorations or to reduce glare and reflection. With 44/40, you can accomplish a multitude of tasks. It is essential for your workbench; the highly active formulation ensures you can expertly touch up nearly any non-stainless gun steel and seamlessly blend repairs into the original finish. For gun shops or stores, the product is available in a proven, self-selling display. It includes a dozen 2 oz bottles of 44/40 in a brightly labeled, eye-catching countertop display tray, along with a test bottle and a supply of nails for customers to experience the product's quick and easy application. Additionally, cleaning patches are provided for the wipe-off step of the procedure.
