[QUOTE="kyratango, post: 553804, member: 5006"]Clever hubby! No need of silver paint under! For removing tarnish and polish the damage, I use a fiber glass pen brush like this one: [URL]https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F322221478444[/URL] Ecoline is easily lighten with water. I have 2 sets of 5 colors and one white (can give an opalescent effect in infinitesimal amount!)[ATTACH=full]170107[/ATTACH] I fold 2 or 3 pieces of tinfoil concave, put a drop of blue in one, a drop of green in the other, mix in the third with some water step by step till I get the matching tone. Then put a drop of diamond glaze on a plastic pringles snacks cap I keep for that, then mix a tiny amount of my obtained color with it, using a toothpick (be aware diamond glaze is opalescent before drying clear!). Be careful not having bubbles! Apply a droplet with the toothpick, stretching it to the edges. Let dry under a glass (Nini :cat: proof!):) If you aren't pleased with the result let it sit in water a while, it will turn white and soft and you can remove the repair and do it again! Thrilled to see your result :)[/QUOTE]
