There is no difference in the finish, other than the color. The rust blue is a deeper blue, as where the hot dip caustic blue is more of a dark blue. They're both a beautiful finish. There are some firearms that require a rust blue, because the steel that's used won't take a caustic blue (it turns it a red color) and there are some firearms that are held together by a lower temp solder that will erode away in a caustic bath.

There is a place in BR that will but they don't have a FFL so you have to be there while it's done .(their policy) I'm not sure of their work experience on firearms so I can't recommend them on their services.
