I have a Kala KA-S soprano that I like but the faux plastic mother of pearl tuners were pretty ugly. So I used a trick i've used before to color plastic or vinyl. I got some Rit fabric dye, wine color. I took off the tuners and sanded the surface of the ugly buttons to give them some tooth for the dye to stick to. Then I soaked them in the Rit dye.
Pretty easy. I like them better now. They still have that fake mother of pearl look but at least not that milky grey white. I could of just bought some new tuners but I wanted to try this out.
