TT, from what I got the hot bleach caused the rust (red) that was brushed off and then "Dipped" again and again brushed off. THEN it was soaked in a baking soda solution to kill all effects of the bleach then once again "Cleaned up". This is what left the "BLACK" pitted patina on the steel.

Thats what I took from it also.
Like I said before I think it is a great finish for SR-77 and SR-101. It wont rub off and keeps them from rusting <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
