After getting clean ... protect and enhance the blue with Wax ... Renwax is museum grade , expensive and not easy to find ... I use a good 100% Carnauba Wax that is made for cars.
The wax job realy makes the finish look good !

Agree sparingly and gently! Also - Flitz should only be used on original factory finished bluing. I bought my Ren Wax on line. The wax can also be used on the wood stocks.
