For those who want to work barrel metal with the hammers, an easy method to preserve the barrel finish is to use a layer of tape over the area and actually hammer on it. I use Scotch packaging tape. You may have to change it a few times, but you would be surprised at how long it will last. I'm only using a 1 1/2 to 2 oz. hammer to do this, with thousands of light taps, so the tape will last longer than you would think.
