How to make Burnt chrome pickup covers?

[Brian N]

Has anyone made these? Like the kind BKP makes? I've seen some folks online who made them but they didn't say anything other than they used a blow torch. Do you put the cover directly in the flame? How close to the flame? How high to set it? If anyone has made these input would be appreciated

I tried it with one of my covers with very limited results. I went at it for a couple hours and it just looked really bad, so I polished it clean and tried again. It's really not very easy. I got it to where it's all colored, but the color is very dull.
