    Ran across this video on YT while looking for ways to make a nice green patina.

    I would not let him hear you say that....:eek::eek:
     
  8. He mentions in the video that "blue vitriol" is getting hard to obtain....that's just an old fashioned name for copper sulphate. Most of the finishes I've been playing around with are the opposite of patinas, like passivating brass for example.
