Keep you posted......Robert
I do hope you mean they are 3mm larger, 3 cm would be quite apparent.

I also wonder if you could lighten the colour by removing the gold paint (should be easy to remove from glass), and repainting with a light aluminium paint, or even a gloss white? The prism facets of the glass should provide the reflectivity, and not rely on the metallic components of the painted backing.
