Copper Patina

1 - 8 ounce Bottle of Novacan Copper Patina Changes the silver solder to copper color! For best results do the following steps as it'll really make a difference! 1. After soldering wipe finished solder with a piece of 0000 (super fine) steel wool. 2. Clean with a non ammonium cleaner (that means NO glass or widow cleaners). I recommend using AT THE VERY LEAST spray bottle filled with cheap alcohol from your medicine cabinet. OR get some Flux Remover like CJ's or KwikClean. 3. Apply Patina with a CLEAN acid/Flux brush 4. Clean again. 5. Most important you need to finish off with a metal polish or a car wax (or Clarity Finishing compound made for solder) to shine and protect that patina altered solder. *********** ANTIQUE FINISH INSTRUCTIONS ****** AFTER DOING THE STEPS OUTLINED ABOVE: Go over solder AGAIN with the super fine steel wool. Doing this lightens up that black patina, clean again. Working with this technique back & forth you can create a really cool Antique Finish.
