Working on a 38-14T and the gold foil dial is in very bad shape:

Does anyone have any tips on trying to use Photoshop to clean up the dial and then printing it on gold paper. Does anyone know if gold paper with that particular pattern is available? Are there any reproduction dials available?

Thanks

The thankful receiver bears a plentiful harvest.
