Cold Blue mistake

[Tanner68]

I put some cold blue (Brownells Oxpho-Blue) on something that should have been left in the white. Any recommendations on stripping/removing/undoing it?

birchwood casey sells some blue and rust remover that works good for removing old blueing

I think phosphoric acid will do the job.

Thanks guys. I don't have any naval jelly, so I used another rust remover I had in the cabinet. It did the job.
