Yes, McMaster Carr as mentioned above, they're great because they're geographically very close to me. I usually get an order the next day. But sometimes you're required to order 500 of something you only need 3 of.

But I'm curious, is there another online vendor like Belmetric that sells non metric nuts and bolts? I'm putting together a Buick LC2 engine that I've learned has a mix of metric and non metric bolts and studs holding it together. ****** brilliant. I guess GM was in a transition period in the late 80's and this motor's roots go back to the 60's. The hardware store doesn't always have what I need.

You can try Fastenal and Fastner Supply. I am a fan of McMaster, order early and get ground delivery the next day to NC.

I’d like to find black interior screws.. door, rocker, etc. But when I search Belmetric and Mc, I can find the right size, finish, etc. Anybody know them?

Just Cerakote ones with the correct specs with E-100 Blackout. Media blast the heads with Al oxide or garnet, get a $30 mini gun at HF and your done.

I drill holes and screw into steel wall stud as a holder.

I’m not familiar with Cerakote…Can I brush it on with a small paint brush?

Amazon has 4 ounce bottles.

It needs to be sprayed on, it's applied as a thin film but is extremely durable.

Short of that, an outdoor satin enamel or engine block baked rattle can will work. still need to create a tooth on & in the screw heads

Search up Shaun’s work. It’s drool worthy. Unfortunately, from some of us it would be rendered the lipstick on a pig of a car.

I’m also looking for the type that fit the concave washers in the door and kick boards. I didn’t see that in the link above.
