Gray is easy to do. Get some Naval jelly and put it on your part. Let it sit a few minutes and wipe it off, and you will have a nice, even gray color.
DO NOT put it on springs, or frizzens. Somehow, and it makes no sense to me, the stuff will embrittle springs enough to cause breakage, or so I am told.

i used rags soaked in white viniger wrapped around my parts. got a bitchen damascus look, and it was dead easy. i let it soak in the sun for 2 days pouring viniger on when it would start to dry and rotate the parts so the sun would "burn the viniger in" so to speak. then i used 0000 steel wool and viniger to smoothe out the finish then wipe down with oil and VOILA!
