I am painting my dog dish caps this week. Does anyone have a NOS or really nice original they can look at for me?
What shade of black? When I look at photos of NOS ones they almost look gloss black. But most used ones look satin, I assume that's just from being outside? Or are they a satin black?
In the outer ring, does the black come up the little lip, or sit entirely flat in that ring?
How about in the center, does the black just sit down in there or come up the outer ring a little?
