Both fit great over flat black. Any trans colors and the MHS would have to be taken down a .001" or so.

no trans..
I'm going wrinkle black and another colour.
Great to know though..thx.
Have you tried looking at Rona?
That's where I picked one up. I wasn't looking to see if they had brass though.

Keep in mind, if you don't already know, that sinktube that is sold in hardware stores, Lowes, Home Depot etc, is chrome plating over brass. So if you see sinktube, and it's chrome, that's most likely what you're looking for. We usually just strip the chrome off of the tube by sanding it. Works great, and its a far cheaper alternative than trying to find brass tubing that isnt plated. Im not sure why, since it's extra work and material to plate things, but that's just one of those things I guess.

Gauge does matter though. Do you know what gauge the pipe is? If you email Tim before your order and tell him what you are thinking he should be able to tell you what he has done for others. Its been done before.
Dj...I have no idea regarding machining terms just repeating what I've read.
I did email Tim, but until I got his reply, I though I'd ask around since I hadn't found a thread on the subject anyways.
All I know about the gauge is the brass I have easy access to fit nicely over bare MHS.
