(the very small squares, which are about 1/2" square),. I spray them with the same gold paint as the plate. Unless they are nickel plated to begin with. You should polish those up, and spray them with a clear coat of lacquer. I leave the hitch pins in, and spay them. That is not a problem. You can spray the agraffes, too, but for a super look, take them out and polish then, since they are brass. Keep should them in order when you take them out, and put them back in the same hole. Wim Gerald-Wim, Someone mentioned putting a spent firearm shell casing over each agraffes before spraying.. I haven't tried this yet and can't remember the caliber required. You could bring one to a gun shop or mic. the O.D. Tom Driscoll ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
