I got a set of 7 & 8s the other day that had a gold finish. That finish wasn't going to work for me. Since I'm outa work, I can't afford a pro to do them and since I have time on my hands, I gave it a shot. They could be better and now that I've done one set, another set would be easier.
T.C. Pre-finish (the 7's, which I sold)  RSR DIY finish (8's)  I also screw'd around with a set of Cookie Cutters  |
