I have very limited experience with Parkerizing but not with bluing. I really like the way my M1911A1 turned out after it was re-Parkerized and I would not hesitate to di it again, but only one guns that are a mess, not on an original with some minor issues. My pistol was already jacked up by a previous owner who blued it and did a very poor job. I had it sandblasted with aluminum oxide, then I re-Parkerized with the help od David and several others here who were kind enough to help me along the process.

I bought a bottle of Oxpho Blue at our Cabela's in Dundee, MI, but they didn't have the creme variety, just the liquid.
