These are silver in color and not a hint of gold. I stripped the paint I put on earlier off ( chemically ) and installed them Monday. As I said originally they look just like the bolts and screws you buy at Lowes Pretty silver color and not at all like hot dipped galvinized bolts.
I'll let you guys know how well they hold up here in Texas with out paint.

I know you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure that you realize that what you heard is not what I meant!
