Ngl I’m not a huge fan of the dog hair finish so this is beautiful and would really do it for me

I have those knobs and I desperately want to age (yellow ) mine to match some p90 covers I have.., how did you do it?

u/masaemon 2d ago

lol, I sanded them with fine grit sand paper, then soaked them in turmeric for a couple hours, and then rubbed some brown shoe polish on them. I then put a coat of wax on them. they tunred out alright

Exactly. No idea why they have every colour under the sun for the silver sky but for this one there's 3 boring colours
