Wow. Overwhelmed by the magnitude of this one. So no. Never did it. There are a few reasons for this. First, stainless is expensive and painting it negates its benefits. Second, Oil Rubbed Bronze is a metal finish...real oil over real bronze, ergo it won't "paint". To achieve an oil rubbed bronze finish, you would need to first have the hood plated in bronze, then colored with oil. Problem is, plating is an electrical current in an acid bath with bars of the actual plating metal in the bath with the item...and I haven't yet seen a plating bath big enough to handle a hood.

There are custom copper fabricators that would be able to fashion a hood for you and do an antique copper finish. There are black hoods...painted. I'm curious now.... so I'll search for an ORB hood and get back to you.

OK...here is one version. http://jackals.hubpages.com/hub/Oil-Rubbed-Bronze-Wall-Hood

Ironwood Builder, thank you for your process description and the link. From the article I learned they are even looking to make ORB refrigerators. Not only can I share being in the know style wise, I can share the engineering and I also have a new reason to put off my own kitchen remodel.
