There is a post here on the forums about the grill cloth toning I did a month or 2 ago but where I posted it is a mystery to me. All I did was lay the cloth down and give her a light mist of perfect brown toner. It gave the look of the original bronze color

See the toned cloth in my Aircastle and the untoned same cloth in my 84
