And since blue rust only takes up 1/4 as much space as red rust, a bit of heat might help a lot. Plus wax will lube the joint too.

I rust blued a shotgun barrel lately, scroll to pic #6. Make it all rusty with household chemicals, then dip into hot water, and wha-la, bluing! Do it 6-7 times for a deep finish.
