Hi All;

     I'm in the middle of restoring my Economy 2-1/2/HP E and because of the
very rusty and ugly paint (not orignal paint) I have decided repaint it ,
the push rod , govenor assembly and most of the moving parts were painted
with thick black paint , I have remved the paint and did electrolis to
remove all rust, I then dipped the parts in mag wheel aluminium
brightner(full strength) for a few seconds and they came out bright shinny
cast iron parts I then washed all the acid off and was going to paint them,
instead I am woundering how gun blueing or browning would work on cast iron
, it would look better and would not interfere with the mag trip , anybody
do this with good results ?  thanks for reading , I know there was a thread
on this a while back but I missed most of it,

PS, the Economy will soon be breathing again .
