Anyone repaint their belt buckles? With what? Mine are black but if held at an angle they have a bluish tint (maybe age?). Anyhow, what to repaint them with?

The bluish hue is from fade, the stitches are no doubt compremised as well, you should probably replace. BEA has them now I believe.

That being said, probably any fabric dye would work. Challenge will be staying off the labels and buckles (might not effect them).


Careful, your character's showing!

Nothing wrong with the belts its the buckles that need refinishing. What to "paint" them with ??

The buckles on my 1970 Duster are black also. I was thinking about using SEM trim paint on them. I didn't try any yet but it might be a consideration.
