I looked into Creakote a couple years ago. Its specs are great, and one has a choice of sheens and colors. It would have been used to refresh a couple of Erma pistols--perfect, because it will adhere to Zamak--however, to have the process carried out by one of their dealers would have cost more than each pistol is worth. Since then, IIRC, it is sold by Brownell's in small quantities. Such a finish would be much more affordable in DIY format, but I have no direct experience with it, so cannot say what the results would look like.
