Hi Joan -
As long as you have a lot of time for the frame to dry, you could use oil paints on it. Don't laugh! I've altered a JFM gold frame using ivory black and another fairly translucent color. It took a good long while to dry, but I like the result.
I would guess that you could use alkyd's the same way. I'd be interested in hearing what others have done.
About the JFM frames - I wonder if anyone else has had this happen - I had a picture at a local gallery that I decided to take it back home. There was a little round sticker on the side of it. When the gallery attendant took it off, off came some of the color too! I guess I will have to put a clear lacquer on any other frames to avoid this happening again.
Here's hoping you get lots of good advice....
