Tinting motorcycle parts just a little bit gold or brassy

July 9, 2009

Hello,
I've got a new motorcycle and I'm trying to give all the "silver" colored hardware a very slight gold or brassy tint. Any ideas how to achieve this inexpensively? Maybe something I can rub on and control the amount of tint?
Thanks,
-=A=-

Hi, Anthony. Rub n Buff ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] is very inexpensive, but generally designed for untouched interior parts like ceiling fans and chandeliers. But I suppose you could try one :-)
