Well, I suppose if it is a high grade detergent, it might no affect 
bluing.  Since bluing is chemically bonded to the surface and rust 
isn't, if might not affect bluing. Except for that phase, especially 
Remington, gunmakers went through when bluing was spray paint.  As 
wonderful cost saving it was!

I guess a test would be to blue a piece of steel and try.
