Stainless Steel Super

How to change the color of Stainless Steel to goldish?

I was told that you can super heat stainless steel to change its apperance. Is this true? I have a craft that I want to do. I have a sheet of s.s. Can I just heat it like to 525 degrees and it will change color.

Color tempering is based on the oxide colors that appear on the surface of steel, as it is heated. When you slowly heat a piece of polished hardened steel, you can see the surface turn various colors as the temperature changes. These colors indicate structural changes are taking place within the metal. Once the proper color appears, the part is rapidly quenched to prevent further structural change. In color tempering, the surface of the steel must be smooth and free of oil. The part may be heated by a torch, in a furnace, over a hot plate, or by radiation.
