    Any one know of a supplier who sells black or dark coloured metals to go with a striped carpet, only ones I have found are the Cat chromed ones( arm and A leg!) or Morley will make them but I would have to buy a tube and I need 4 doubles and and an 8ft single.
    Otherwise it could be a trip to halfords :lol:

    you could get them anodized.

    Cost maybe £10 per 8' length.

    you need to find a company that does anodizing near you. Take the plates (silver alloy) to them and they will plate them for you.

    like so - http://www.customcolour.co.uk/coloured.htm

    They are based in Belfast and have a depot in Glasgow. Had a check on the packaging yesterday and they come from floorwise.

    May be too late for you Robroy, but if anyone is still interested, Roberts do a range of anodised bronze metals. I used them years ago with pale berbers, coirs etc.
    They still list them in their catalogue http://www.roberts-estillon.com/
