I have only one source left for potassium permanganate. Just finished a new horn and am wanting to get that nice yellowish, orangish color that is so popular right now. I know the potassium permanganate will do the job, but the amount available and price is kinda prohibitive. I've tried rit dye....iodine and a couple other methods, but cannot achieve the color I see on the horns for sale around rendezvous. Some of my horns have developed their own patina over the last 40 years, but I don't think I have another 40 to wait on this last one. Does anyone have a proven method to color it now?
