How to do dark black finish on gold jewelry

----

Hello, Although I assumed that the problem I have is one that has been solved a long time ago, it has been a great struggle for me to find the solution. I need to place a black finish on selected areas of gold jewelry. The problem is that this finish has to be a deep black and as thin as possible. I have tried car paint (Endura) and black nickel plating, but as the areas are small (20 x 20mm ) it proved to be very difficult to apply paint evenly, and I found the nickel not dark enough in colour. I am not in the finishing industry and have found it very frustrating to find people that have experience with this type of problem. Thanks,

Hi,

Use duco black paint and duco thinner. Mix it properly then soak pieces what gold plated one. Just keep one minute. Remove by the help of cloth this called black antique in gold.
