I bought one , a few years ago , tried it on the exterior of an old shotgun that needed some light rust removal and it scratched the metal something awful....I nolonger will use it on the exterior....it is thin coiled ribbons of , it looks like , stainless steel. How this stuff is not supposed to scratch up a blue finish I have no idea.
Before you use it on a valuable gun...try it out on something like a scrap piece of rusty metal.....it messed up my gun big time when it scored the metal . I'm not joking...try it first .
I would send you the one I had but I tossed it after trying a coil wrapped around a bore brush for cleaning a barrel. Didn't like it for that either.
The stuff is way to coarse...razor wire is a great description of the stuff. Steel and bronze wool are a lot better.... in my experiences .
That baloney about it not scratching is doodly squat...
Those wire coils are NOT softer than bluing...
