Anyone ever patina metal?

I'm addicted to it. Been doing it on all my equipment lately.

This is the frame we built last night. Had it blasted this morning. Throw a little heat to it and brush on the acid. Stuff is spendy, but I love the look of it. Comes in many colors. This is Japanese Brown.

Then add some copper air lines......

I know a place locally that has the restrooms done this way.

Here is a link for a home made formula...
