Birchwood Casey makes a chemical that removes bluing. In addition, Naval Jelly, a popular rust remover, will also remove gun bluing.

A magnet will not stick to aluminum, but both the Birchwood Casey product and Naval Jelly will corrode aluminum alloy very quickly.
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.
