Chuck:
For phosphated stuff I agree 100%. Ditto on the wire wheel, too as it is a totally different appearance with the relatively rough beaded finish.

Incidentally, I found an excellent sub for real phosphatized finish for items that might be too large or difficult to "cook". It is available from Brownell's (.com?), a gun restoration supply outfit (they also sell the zinc phosphate solution). It is rattle can paint available in two different shades. Pretty darn good....
