UPDATE at post 5.
I plan to have some unique rivets installed in my RV and would like to know how I can make them visually distinctive.
I got the idea from a dad and daughter team in Boulder who had people special to them install rivets in their RV7. Some of the special rivets that I intend to install would be those handled by a couple of hundred Marines from my Vietnam unit who will meet for a reunion next week. I want them to pass the rivets around. I plan to have the mother of a Medal of Honor recipient (posthumous) from our unit install one of the rivets.
Here is the MOH citation for those who may be interested

I would like to make the rivets visually distinctive so that they can be identified later. Can you color a rivet without causing a problem when you paint over it?
Any ideas?
Thanks
Sorry about the multiple messages, I am IT challanged. I'm sure Doug can delete the others, but I don't know how to.
