Cold Blue
I have been using the same bottle of "44/40" cold blue for decades, so I don't know if it's still made, but it was the best then, and still works fine. Make sure the spot is absolutely positively degreased.(use Berryman's B-12) Warm the spot with whatever heat source, not too hot to touch, just nice and warm. I spread the cold blue with a Q-tip. Let it dry, them buff it gently but firmly with 0000 steel wool. This might lighten it, requiring a second application, or a third. Just repeat the process until yer happy, then oil 'er up.
