Oxpho Blue amzn.to/3O0iMXl
Nice job, the nail set came out better than I thought it would. The knurling on that set is amazing too. I also thought the way you cleaned the tip with a Dremel bit was a stroke of genius.
Thanks Dale! Nail sets and punches are fun to clean up!
It does look more blue. Good to see you using a clean cotton ball for each dip into the container, don't want to contaminate the whole bottle.
Mrs Magdad got me plenty of cotton balls to use!
The nail set looks great and I agree that there is more of a blue tint to the Oxpho0Blue than the Birchwood Casey nail sets. From what I can see the polishing with the steel wool and the coating with oil seemed to level out the finish. Thanks for sharing this review.
Thanks John!
Definitely more "blue" in color. Also, I think the music you used in this video fits your channel perfectly. Just a thought as a "theme song" :-). Have a great day sir.
Thanks! I'm glad you liked the tunes!
Great video Magdad!
I like the way your center punch turned out. I think I noticed a difference with the oxpho blueing. I’m going to give it a try. Thank You for sharing.
Thanks Jack! Let me know what you think of it!
Great Job on the nail set the Oxpho- Blue made the nail set really pop ... Mr Magdad take care and has a nice Sunday afternoon off hope to see your next week's video
Thanks Roger! Have a great week!
Well Done Magdad . It Looks Like Evening Out The Finish Did It. I Could See It Was Where The Rust Was Different And Had Affected the Metal Unevenly . That's Where It Needed Reworking . Nice Job 👍 !
Thanks Wayne!
The Oxpho does look nice and easy to use ..I do like the perma blue paste better than liquid it is a darker finish like the Oxpho
I've had good results with the Birchwood Casey products. I'm looking forward to trying the oxpho-blue on future projects.
They turned out great Magdad. Beautiful deep blue/black colour very similar to heat blueing.
Thanks! I'm looking forward to using Oxpho-Blue some more!
Yeah the Oxpho does seem bluer than the others. Groovy tunes! Very helpful video. Thanks!
Thanks Mike!
Thanks for sharing your use of this product and comparing it to the other bluing products. It looks like the best. The best test will be how they last under use and time. Great idea to seal with the 30w oil.
Thanks Larry!
Great demo. Looks like it works really well.
I'm looking forward to trying it on more projects!
Came out well. The final finish was pretty descent. The initial finish resembled a case hardened finish. Where do you find non detergent oil. I have never seen any.
I think I got the non-detergent oil at Advanced Auto.
@@357magdad I'll have to look. I dont need any just been curious to try some and see its properties.
Thanks for the video. The nail set cleaned up very well. It looks so much better with a cold blue application.
I have to get a cold blue product, perhaps this Oxpho-blue, looks very easy to apply. Good idea to apply a coat of oil afterwards. Non-detergent oil is very useful in the shop and for some machines.
Dave.
Thanks Dave! I think ScoutCrafter likes the Oxpho blue too.
The results on that rusty Great Neck nail set were good. Thanks for sharing the comparison to you previously completed bluing of the nail sets. As you mentioned and others have mentioned the knurling is great.
Thanks Michael!
Great test, but I wonder if it only appears darker because the oil Sheen is new… The other nail sets may look just as good if you’d reapplied some oil to those as well?
The oil will make it look darker. I think it looks a little bluer too.
I never thought a nail set video would be entertaining but this was awesome! I liked the comparisons at the end. I like Oxpho Blue a lot
Thanks for watching! You may aslo enjoy my rust bluing video:

@@357magdad I have it in my watch list! Thanks
The nail set came out nice, thanks for the comparison on the bluing products, handy to know, thanks for the tips and video sir.
Thanks Terry!
That nail set came out great, and the Oxpho-Blue did a nice job. I really like the knurling on that nail set!
Thanks Chris! The different knurling patterns are what make punches and nail sets fun to clean up!
Great job! I like the way it turned out!
Me too! Thanks Mike!
Thanks for this Magdad, it's good to be able to compare the different products on the same type of tool !
Thanks Andy!
That is a very nice result. It does, in fact; look a little more blue in the video. The comparisons were very useful, as well. A well thought out video.
Thanks Stephen!
Nice test results nail punch finish looks better than new, another test you could do is using the new products process with the Birchwood product, that way you will know if it the product or process that gives different results
Thanks!
Complete transformation! I really like the knurling too. The oxpho-blue looks to have a darker finish than the others and comparing it side by side looks to be the best hands down. Brownells is a great company for gunsmithing as you know, so it makes sense they’d have a dialed-in blueing product. 👍
Thanks! It seems like a good product. I'm looking forward to using it more.
Interesting comparison, might have to give that one a try, I like the somewhat bluer color!
Thanks John! It seems like good stuff!
Great job I like the look of the oxpho blue the best compared to the others good stuff 👍
Thanks! I'm looking forward to trying in on future projects!
Been using Oxpho for years...definitely the best result, IMHO. With a little practice, you can get a good imitation of the mottled color case hardened finish seen on some fire arms
I'm looking forward to using it on more projects!
Love the mid-century jazz. And the mid-century lingo-I also dig the knurling!
What can I say, I must be a mid-century kinda guy!
Simple, straight forward, and to the point as an instructional/comparison video should be. Thanks
I'm glad you liked the video!
Great review! This stuff is the stuff in my opinion.... according to their site you can use it right over the rust.. and it converts it and blues it. Though I haven't done that as the results are better prepped then blued... I blue the item, let it dry hit with wool, if it needs more.. blue again spray with WD40 and let dry... I have no reason behind that other then it's just what I do..haha. nice episode Good Stuff!
Thanks Big Vic! I'm looking forward to trying it on future projects!
Love the finish from this test it does seem to give a greater bluer finish than the others 😁👍
Thanks! I'm looking forward to using it on future projects.
Thanks for the review Magdad. The Oxpho seems to be the darkest of the four. I’ll have to give it a try. Take care.
Give it a try David!
another great video enjoy going thru them all, thank you!
I'm glad you're enjoying my videos!
357 Magdad: thank you for not playing your background music loud and obnoxiously.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
Made the tools look awesome Thank you for the video
Thanks! Cold bluing is a nice option to have in your bag of tricks!
Have you handled anything coated in the Oxpho enough to get a sense of durability?
Thanks for watching Stephen! I have a couple everyday user tools that have cold blued handles, but not this brand. They have held up OK in normal use.
Excellent as usual.❤
Thank you!
I think they all look pretty close but I’d give the Oxpho the win for color. BTW, the striking end of the set turned out better than factory. Great restoration.
Thanks Robert!
Depending on the price point, looks like we have a new leader! In my opinion of your testing!
I think 4oz is about $16 on Amazon.
Why do you clean with denatured alcohol as opposed to the more readily available isopropyl alcohol?
Birchwood Casey's Super Blue was one of the first cold bluing products I tested. Their directions recommended denatured alcohol so I've used that in every review to maintain consistency.
Maybe you could do one where you hot blue one so we could see that as well.
Thank you.
Stay safe out there…
I can't hot blue, but I could try rust bluing a punch...
is oxpho blue just blackening (eye candy) or is it also kind of a surface/rust/corrosion protection?
Cold bluing is more for looks than protection. Check out my bluing options video:

Nice job. I think I like that one better. Thanks for sharing my friend. 👍🔪👊🔥🍻
Thanks WM3!
Great video. Thank you.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Lovely job.
Thanks for watching!
1i thought the cleanup on the nail set was great. Just getting rid of the rust made all the difference. But the bluing is very nice.
Thanks Pat! Cleaning up nail sets and punches is fun!
I'm glad they didn't name Great Neck Tools after the founder.
Mr. Jacoff had an unfortunate name....
How long did you let it dry before putting the oil on it? Thanks
I oiled it right after buffing with steel wool.
@@357magdad perfect thank you!
Definitely did a nice job. Seems as good, if not better than the BC products.
Thanks Gary! I'm looking forward to using it on future projects!
Thanks for the info!
You got it Tony!
Looks great 👍
Thanks Michael!
i like the darker color of the last one
Thanks Mike!
