Order yourself some sandpaper. I bought this set off of Amazon. Polish the black parts off of your picks and round off the corners on the hooks (leave the rough edges on the rakes, you want them to grab & catch).
Are they painted Blue or are they Molded Blue?
If they are painted, some rubbing combound and a lot of elbow grease might do it.
If they are molded, then get a pack of ultra fine wet/dry sandpaper and polish it back smooth.
Hi Fezz
I think I'm in a really similar position to yourself - I've just bought a bunch of tools and I'm now at that point of getting some good(ish) leather to properly work on. I've been reading books and blogs and forums like there's no tomorrow, and posted a question or two here.
My advice from what I've found in response to each question and what I would personally do is:
Here is an actual answer instead of condescending replies you seem to be getting. I actually just did this to my 5° case! I have a silver one and recently saw some pictures of white cerakoted cases and really liked how nice and simple they looked. Got in touch with some local auto shops but the quotes all came back in the ~$100 range. I got a pack of assorted grit sand paper, Aluminum Primer, and some White Enamel from my local Lowes. I sanded my case, cleaned it with a microfiber cloth, applied a few of coats of the aluminum primer, waited a day and sanded that with 800 grit to get rid of any weird bumps the primer left. Then I started coating it with the white enamel. I would do a few light coats 1 hour apart, wait a day, sand it with 800/1000 and repeat that process for like 3 days (3ish light coats, wait a day, sand). I got a nice, even, and very white finish on it now. I'll send you some pics once I get home
