    It is hard to determine the "type" of paint that is used on costume
    jewelry without first seeing the item in question. Over the years
    everything from hard enamel, to nail polish (I kid you not) has been
    used on fashion jewerly. How old are the items you want to repair. It
    the "paint" sprayed in multilevels? Is it worn or chipped? These are
    some of the questions that one must answer to determine how the items
    were made. My suggestion is for you to send me a jpeg and let me look
    at it. By the way, I have only about 35 years experience in the
    fashion end of the business.
