With this set, you can create the traditional surface protection at home, accurately burnishing knife backs or other metal components. You can also touch up existing finishing, e.g. on rifle shafts, without any problems.
Burnishing creates a protective layer (patina) on a ferrous surface to protect against rust.

Burnishing is used for corrosion protection. In contrast to other processes, no additional layer is applied to the metal during burnishing, but a mixed oxide layer of FeO and Fe2O3 is created on the surface to protect against corrosion. During the burnishing process, the colour of the surface changes to black or dark blue.
To achieve an even result, the metal must first be treated with a degreaser and possibly also with fine steel wool (grit 00). Then you can start the actual burnishing at a temperature of 20-30 °C. Oil the burnished workpiece overnight to stabilise the burnishing.
