What is in liquid bluing?

In reference to liquid bluing, the laundering agent. Liquid bluing is a colloidal suspension of fine blue iron (vivianite) powder, a pH balancer, and often a biocide. Vivianite is often referred to as Blue Iron, or Blue Iron Earth, as when fresh, the mineral may be colourless, or nearly so; but, once exposed, will oxidize with the Fe2+ converting to Fe3+ with a concurrent darkening to blue.

How much gun blueing do you mix with coal?

Gun bluing is not mixed with coal. Most hot gun blues are a caustic chemical, and will eat holes in your body if you handle it wrong. I have a vague recollection of growing crystals on a lump of coal when I was a youngster- recall that it used ammonia, and liquid LAUNDRY bluing. In the pre-bleach days, laundry bluing was added to rinse water for white clothes, and made them look whiter. Have not seen it in years. If you are growing a crystal project, try adding a few drops of liquid food color.

Is there a substitute for laundry bluing?

Not really. Laundry bluing adds colloidal suspension of Prussian blue to the wash water. I've heard that there is an azure blue suspension offered in some places, but it works the same way. It leaves a very slight blue tinge to white fabrics, which makes them appear whiter. Some brands of laundry detergent use optical brighteners for the same purpose. Bluing is a type of optical brightener. If you want to make white fabrics as white as possible, and you have already tried bleach and the oxi-type products, you can try leaving the fabric to dry in the sun light. Nothing works like bluing, though.
