I don't know what happened in your instance, but I have used Flitz on blued guns for years with no adverse effects. But I will admit I have been gentle with it, only using it to remove that old factory finish. The results are amazing: the most gorgeous Colt-looking blue you will ever see, especially on one of those old Carbonara blued "S" series revolvers!
