The raised lettering on the handle side bar castings had been painted over. I had intended having this highlighted in gold by a local sign writer but as this was yet another expense I thought I would give it my best shot. Despite my less than steady hand I’ve surprised myself with the outcome. I used plasti-cote B33 brass coloured enamel paint with a very fine artist brush. Fortunately this paint is water based so the inevitable smudged and smeared letter can be wiped over with a damp sponge, dried with a tissue and started again. And this happened several times.
