RE: [Chrysler300] how to refinish aluminum cones in center of gauges

["Gary Nelson" <gnelson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

>From aluminum I machined a masking cone with a sharp edged to fit into
bottom of the gauge face. The cone was tall enough to allow you to spray
down to the bottom get a clean paint line. Almost impossible to get same
results masking.

  the cones have a brushed or dull silver appearance around the gold center.
  has anyone had any luck duplicating this finish? also how is the best way
to
  repaint the gold center? tried to mask it and paint it but not very
satisfied
  with the results. these little parts have been keeping me from assembling
my
  gauges for weeks. very frustrating. any suggestions?
