Check out this DH specimen. It was completely covered in black(manganese-oxide). I used Iron0out to clean part of iut and get just the orange(short soaking with part immersed) then I took full strength HCL and let it soak in just 1/3 of specimen to produce white. It's a tri-color Diamond Hill plate!
