Where to get Hot Bluing done in Southern AB?
 

Looking at getting some hot bluing done, nothing fancy a few trigger groups/ magazines, bolts/ pins springs and what not. Cold blue doesn't seem wear as well.
Anyway, wondering if there's anyone in SA that has a hot bluing set up that I can use/ rent or pay to have some parts blued and learn the process?
Been thinking of doing it myself, as I already have most of the gear, stainless steel trays, propane burners,100-500F thermometer, chemical suit, face Sheild, gloves, respirator if needed. Would rather try it with someone that has some experience though. Also suggestions on where to buy/make the bluing salts would be great too.
Thanks

Jim;s phone # in Med Hat is 403 527- 6583

Jim is whom I have been using. I send my stuff to him on Greyhound and get it back similarly. his email: dustyroads20@hotmail.com

He has done nice work for me. If you have a double, the barrels sometimes cannot go in hot caustic. Jim does rust blueing also as an alternative. But, rust blueing is labour intensive.

Good information thanks.
