I have had good results on bare steel muzzle loader barrels with the G96 cold paste blue.
1 / Clean and de-grease several times, then do it again.
2 / Warm the piece so it is almost to hot to handle . I use a butane torch.
3 / Flood the steel with paste , smoothly and evenly. use a cotton ball , or clean cotton . It will be drying as fast as you put it on.
4 / let is set till cool and polish it with 0000 steel wool .
If it isn't to your liking degrease and do it all over again. When you are happy neutralize with baking soda/ water then rinse thoroughly , dry , and oil it well.
