Brass Ager Solution

Product Description

Brass Ager Solution – | Brass | bronze |Tin | antique copper

Used to antique copper or darken brass, copper, bronze, or tin. Easy to apply and causes no dimensional change. Gradual color change lets you control the color.

Please Note: Solution will not work on lacquered, brass plated, or nickel plated surfaces.
This solution will produce a darkened brownish/ black patina that can vary in color from a light brown, to very dark brownish black, to dusty grey (if heavily applied).

To use it, you must have metal with no clear coating on it. Acetone or stripper will remove the coating. Rub the piece down with #0000 Steel wool, and clean it well with paper towels and acetone making sure you do not touch it with your oily fingers. You can then brush on the brass darkening solution or soak the parts in it until they turn black in color. They are then rinsed with water, and color adjusted with some dry #0000 steel wool rubbing the black off until you get the look you want.

for this solution to work, the metal has to be solid brass, copper and not coated with a lacquer finish. If your brass has a finish on it, you need to remove it. Acetone works for removing this type of finish. You can get acetone from the hardware store or use fingernail polish remover.
As for the color change, they may not turn black but a nice antique look. The longer you leave the brass in the solution, the darker it will get.

Available in 2oz, 8oz, and 32oz, bottles.
