Thank you all for your comments!
I did a lot of digging to figure out the best way to go about this, It's not a big secret at all just needed time to research the internet. I myself knew many of the reactions already from the chemistry courses I had in university! didn't know people were not sharing their process thinking it's a real secret! later today I will write more details about the whole process, hopefully it will be a good starting point for all of members interested.

I like the painted version better. And that font used on the dial really is the cherry on top.
