---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Maggie Jusiel, I have just visited the archives after several months and saw your question about keytop dye. I had a client with an old birdcage with plastic keytops and a couple were missing. The existing keytops were slightly discolored with age and I tried to figure out how to discolor the replacements to match the originals. I tried soaking the replacement plastic keytops in some tea overnight. No luck. Next I poured a small amount of lacquer thinner into a cap and dipped a brown felt-tipped marker into the thinner. This created a very thin dye which I wiped onto a replacement keytop. It successfully created a faded appearance, although the color did not match the originals exactly. So I told her that was the best I could do and sold the job. Did you have any luck from your own efforts?
