I want something that wears better but has that blueing shine.

I thought about black chrome and Robar has something that looks close but too black.

Also I am wondering if modern finishes look good over engraving?

Any options? Pics would be awesome

I think most spray finishes will obscure the bright cuts on an engraved gun. I’ve seen industrial hard chrome (as opposed to bumper chrome) look good on an engraved gun. And it’s a very durable finish, but it isn’t blue or black.

I sent some pics to your contact email.
