Bazza12 Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Hi all. Has any one ever tried to or knows how to re-colour black bone buttons, whose tops are now beginging to show the original colour due to age/wear & tear. These belong on my 48 key English Lachenal, which I am contemplating restoration. Thanks for any replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdarnton Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 I use a lot of India ink in my shop for this kind of job, but not on bone. I suspect it would do the job, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunks Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 You could try an ebony touch up pen (like a magic marker but made for various woods). Minwax makes them among others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
