In the world of metalworking, the term bluing is used to describe several different processes that create rust resistant coatings around metal parts. Can these same bluing techniques be used on 3D printed metal parts and if so, how viable are they? Join us in the season finale of 3D Printing Thursdays as we explore two different methods of bluing and the results that they produce when applied to 3D printed parts!
