Patina me up.

Hi Apes

fancy a change with the brass mod, as in i cant be bothered to keep polishing it every week!

short of burying a perfectly good mod in the garden for a few months what methods do you use to achieve the worn patina look.

saw a thread a few weeks back about someone trying out with different methods but buggered if i can find it now.

Any tips would be ace

let Dave dawn use it for a week that will sort it for you lol

I just use my brass nem clone without polishing or cleaning of any kind, except a (very) occasional vodka bath. Mind you, thus far it isn't so much patina'd as just dull.

Well, that was quick! I joined the Patina Mods group weeks ago, and I'm still gathering ingredients and ruminating. Haven't even decided which lucky mod is going to be first for the treatment.

Lol, I just dived in as you can see.
Best way is to start imo.
Surprisingly easy, will leave it in the tub a bit longer next time to gain a different effect.

A few weeks ago I did a nemesis clone for my son. He's pleased with it.
