Hi Lance, Just a thought in passing... The main refinishing guy at a local store has been messing around with a lot of variations. There are a lot of different ways to finish a plate. One that he was experimenting with last I checked was something similar to automotive basecoat / clearcoat. Might be worth looking into if you're interested. Probably the hardest part would be getting a sample of the finish you want to their spectrometer (is that what it's called? the little thingy that "sees" the color of a sample and develops a mix to match?) Basecoat / clearcoat isn't cheap, but it's hard to beat the availability of the auto parts store. Just a thought.
