Coloring Pop Rivets

Recommended Posts

Looking for some ideas as to how to color pop rivets, either aluminum or stainless steel, was wondering if gun blue would work? Rick

Gun blue will not work, it'll just bead up and run off. Aluminum Black by Birchwood Casey is fairly commonly found in sporting goods stores. I'd take a look here http://www.caswellplating.com/kits/index.html , they have kits for aluminum and stainless. I've never used them but I would imagine that they would be far better than the BC products but more expensive.

Hi Rickey,

I've never found a really good way...
