I got such a quick response with my first posting I thought I'd run another topic by ya'll.
I bought a set of "compound ivory" grips. At the gun show in Louisville KY this weekend a vendor mentioned giving the "compound ivory" grips an "aged" look with tea.
I hadn't bought the grips yet and like the dork I am I didn't ask him exactly HOW to do this.
The only thing I could think to do is soak the grips in a strong tea mixture. "Kinda" working.
Anyone know more about this. I have a old S&W Model 27 (3.5, blue) at the factory being re-finished. Going to be a wall hanger and I thought aged looking ivory would (magna type) would look pretty cool on it.
