Just 'cause I can never leave anything well enough alone...(and 'cause I couldn't find the exact handles I wanted at a reasonable price) I decided to paint my Signera handles.

I sprayed them with Tremclad Hammered Metal in gold. This gave them the texture I was after. Then I gave them a light spray with bronze. Then a coat of "Expresso". Then a final, very light, overspray of black.

They turned out perfectly...a rusty look. They've been in use for 2 months now & have held up perfectly.

I heart spray paint

Absolutely! Pictures of puppies are always good. Monday, you say? Are these sled pulling puppies?
