I need a durable dark finish for stainless steel. I?m not sure the exact type of stainless steel.
Problem:
I?ve got a stainless steel maille shirt that I ordered from Germany that way too shiny.

I?d like to darken it up with something that isn?t going to rub off too fast. What products or process would work?
What?s I?ve tried:
I?ve tried to heat it up to darken it without much success. I put it in oven at 500deg for 2 hours and no change. Live flame caused an uneven coloring. The rings are .8mm thick and without a furnace they won?t color or darken evenly.
