Just awesome Oscar!!!Thumbsup3.gif

This is the process that I cannot wait to execute on my Bronze Moray when it arrives...(I'll definitely take some nice shots of the "new" bronze, but after that the heavily aged and rich patina'ed look is what I'm after)...now I just need it to arrive!!!

I went through a similar process as you with the web search and agree that everything I came across was way too caustic and chemically unfriendly for me to consider trying on my own, but this is a nice, easy, and "green" solution that anyone can do on their own!!! Sweet!thumbsup.gif

The results are incredible and I especially like the fact that you can incrementally go through the process with as little or as much effect as you want until you reach the desired aging/patina!!!cool.gif...and, of course, the case will continue to age as time goes on but this accelerated process is just what I'm looking for to give it a huge jump on the beautiful patina.

Thanks for the very nice photo sequence and description Oscar!  The results look great!
