It simply transfers the black toner to the aluminum surface. I haven't
tried painting the surface before transferring, but if I'm careful I can
probably get away with it without scorching the paint.

Anybody got a cheap and dirty way of coloring aluminum without paint? I
haven't seen a good cheap way of using dye nor a good anodizing method. I
can get gold by using alodine, but the coating is rather subject to
scuffing.

On the faceplate legend thing-does it change the color of the aluminium
and to what, black?
