If the frame is already gold clean it well. When dry, paint black and wipe. I use acrylics, and paint a section at a time. You can't let the paint dry! Brush, then wipe. You wipe until you like the look. You can use paint esepcially designed for this look, but I've found any old acrylic black paint works fine if you take your time. Also, you can do the reverse, depending on the look you want. Paint it black, or dark, dark brown, DRY. then paint with gold metallic paint and wipe.
