    Amazingly Similar Patina

    Guess Who ?

    The first one looks like it was Buffed before refinish, sorta like the Bavarian look.
    Ever wonder how they get that green/olive look?






    Something we used for years to age/patina new hardware, door knobs, pulls, hinges etc to match up to early period items being incorporated in to a build or project. I remember a client who had purchased a old saloon from out west and had most of the interior installed in their game/entertainment room. Most of the hardware was junk, new production metal was aged/colored to match original patina.

    A Oil Based Semi-Transparent Metal Tint, Available in multiple tints and can be intermixed to achieve desired effect. I'll leave out the rest of the 'How To'.
