Dave have you ever tried the powdered brass and lacquer bit?
If you don't have brass waste to make the powder with your sander or grinder you can call up a Locksmith to see if he has it. Usually they just sweep it all up the day's key cutting end and biff it.
You can experiement in small test patches first. The powdered brass and lacquer makes a beautiful deep old looking gold leaf effect and you can vary it anyway you like.
PAX ET BONUM!
