bobandshawn Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Hi guys, Modded my fair share of dials but I'm looking to do something new. Has anyone tinted a white rollie gloss dial (smoke/tan/champagne/beige)? It looks a little too new and shiny for me. Maybe an amber colored laquer ? thanks, Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanuq Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 I've been told cigarette smoke will tint it, or use the hot end of a lit cigarette held closely to the dial to heat tint it, moving around the perimeter and central hole to concentrate the effect there.
