Hi guys

Thanks Alex for the kind words. Yes it would be very easy to cast these knobs in resin. The best would be to use a NOS one but it would be possible to clean that original one up.

Bob, I can get resin and dyes to make a hard durable "plastic" that would be in the same or close to colour of the orignal. Pewter would work but then you would always have the problem on paint chips and that they are metal and not plastic.
