Note to self:

Do not use OSPHO (an acid that neutrolizes and removes rust)on a blued rifle.

I had a couple little specks of surface rust after shooting in a light mist. Eureka! I've got just the stuff to clean that up. I left it for about 10 seconds and wiped off some blueing with it.

The good news is the barrel is shot out and I already planned on replacing it anyway.

I once use Birchwood Casey Cleaner Degreaser and spilled some on the side of a Winchester M94XTR receiver that had a very deep black blueing.
This chemical lifted/lightened the blueing colour at that spot forever.
