Can someone recommend an artisan that restores hood emblems that you were impressed with and on the horn button, is the gold material used behind the Cadillac crest and the outer ring actually gold leaf or a paint?  I can find no paint that comes close to resembling the original material.  Any info. will be greatly appreciated.  The closest thing I've seen is the ink or paint on the lettering on the front cover of the book "Cadillacs of the Forties" by Schneider.

Thanks,
