Also does anyone know how much work it'll take to fit my new hand-guards as I cant stand the upper grip movement.
Also can anyone post a description of a full disassembly of the gun? I don't want to mess with the trigger ect to unlblue the gun, thanks guys ill post pics soon.

What you want is an actual rust remover; bluing is just a controlled rust process. Best to get a jelly type remover and then you can just wipe it on/rinse off. Also you will want to buy a steel barrel as the aluminum barrel will not age just like the steel, it looks horrible side by side. Regarding the hand guards, they simply slide out of the gas tube sideways, it's a twisting motion. Although I am curious why you are putting on real wood as the stock GHK wood is pretty spot onto the real thing. But all the more power to you.
Full disassemble of the gun is as per a real steel AKM with a few minor differences.
Here is a shot of my AKM today showing the weathering done;
