Step
One:
Apply Base Coat. Refer to
step one of Metal Techniques.
Remember, to remove tape if
you are not completing your
project the same day.
Step
Two:
Reapply masking tape. Use
a damp, natural sea sponge
for the next color. Rinse
the sponge several times and
wring out excess moisture.
Load the sponge evenly and
apply the glaze in a random
fashion. Strive for a naturally
aged look, adding mire color
in some area than in others.
Allow to dry completely.
Step
Three:
Using a damp sea sponge, apply
the last color of glaze sparingly.
This should create a burnished
effect with natural-looking
highlights. For a more authentic
Patina effect, reapply any
of the earlier glazes or Base
Colors with a damp sponge.
Remove tape and allow to dry
overnight. (Always use a practice
board first so you can work
on your technique and test
your color selections.)
