Verdigris effect

[yorkshirepudding]

Has anyone tried metallic reactive paints? I.e. Those copper, iron or brass paints which use an additive to give a verdigris/rust effect. If so do they work and can you tell me a supplier please?

If i'm not misuderstanding, you can use use urine. I probably am misunderstanding though. No shame! Free though!

Lol. Told you I was misunderstanding. It was the mention of copper that led me astray.

You can get a verdigris kit from http://www.fredaldous.co.uk/gedeo-bronze-undercoat-30ml.html
See bottom of page for other half of kit.

It is a long time since I used any I think I also used a fixer spray to seal the effect.

Never used rust effect so no first hand knowledge.
