You won't believe how hard it is to find any info on how to age metal online. All my search results still show how to polish and buff metal. This is the one resource I found. Great job with your tests and this is very helpful!
Love how you get right to the point. Easy to follow. Great info. Thanks
Perfect solution to my needs! You made it simple & fast to understand different techniques & results. Am adding a porch to my art studio and wanted it to look like it's always been there... this is great! Thanks :)
Great tutorial, quick yet comprehensive, thank you!
Love how thorough your videos are on testing different techniques! Great channel!
Thanks. I usually set up little mini experiments for myself when I try out these techniques, and I figure that others would be interested to see that too for more ideas.
Super cool! I like the idea of placing lace on top, gonna have to try it!
SWEET!!! I just tested it out on chainmail! Works SO WELL! DAYUM!
You're amazing, thank you!!!
what a great, inexpensive solution. Thank you.
I've been looking for something like this!! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for putting this up!
I enjoy restoring old barns and doing mini barn projects. This is a great way to achieve an authentic look without the labour intesive process of using reclaimed material. Especially for downspout and eavestrough/gutters. Outside; using your pattina treatment, inside, where the water flows; remains new.
I'm currently finishing up a leanto/gardenshed project. I'm going to try this!
This is exactly what I’m looking for! Thank you
Cool stuff. These would make really fun photo back drops especially experimenting with textures like how the paper towel came out. What a fantastic idea and look for portraits.
Thank you for the info. Old buckets for decorating are hard to find and so expensive. Now I can actually make galvanized bucket look old for a fraction of the cost!
Great tutorial. I have been looking for something like this . Thank you for sharing.
This was the best video I've seen. I'm a DIYer n use youtube a lot. Best one yet!
I appreciate your time and efforts on this. It will certainly help me with my projects!
Very nicely presented. Thank you!
Thanks for the video! Just what I was looking for!
Thank you! I'm going to do this
Awesome video. Thank you for posting.
OMG could I love UA-cam any more??? Perfect video and exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!!!
This is awesome. I can't wait to try this.
...that easy?? Holy moly! And here I thought I was gonna hafta re-up my HazMat cert! This is absolutely wonderful, thank you.
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you!!
I love everything about this video! Very well done sir 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤🫶🙏🙏🙏🙏
This solved a major problem for me! Thanks!
Brilliant tutorial! Thank you :)
Great demonstration. Much cheaper than commercial aging solutions and a lot less complicated than the vinegar, salt, hydrogen peroxide method. Thanks for posting.
Thanks. This is really well explained.
Thank you! This is really helpful!
Great tutorial - thank you!
Brilliant. Thank you!
Awesome video! Just hat I was lookin for, thanks for sharin!
love your tutorial, very good details
Great video - will give it a try.
Great video, keep em coming. I liked the paper towel effect. It gave me other great ideas!! 👍
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
This is my choice as well. Have done it and it looks great! Thanks!
Well done video. Thanks.
This video is awesome!
Thanks for sharing these tips and results! Do you think I would see similar results on tin cans? We're trying to "age" large cans for rustic centerpieces. Thanks!
Great thorough video. Curious if this shortens the time before the steel rusts, even with just one coat. I'm getting some water troughs for raised beds but don't like how shiny they are. but I also don't want them to rust sooner. Any experience with time to see how long it lasts after treating?
thanks for this!
Excellent.
That is really cool.
Would you seal it? I'm thinking of doing this in a interior cabin ceiling..... thanks
You have some really great videos! What do you think about using this method and then finishing with your rust method? But instead of using a spray bottle for the rust method I thought about trying a brush so I could better control where I want the rust to be. I've got a small wooden ladder that I've aged the wood but the metal stands out so I need to really age it so it matches the wood. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks for the videos and ideas! :)
Thanks mate!
If you do the 2x coating does this make the metal more susceptible to rusting?
Cool video thanks!!!
Awesome!
Nice. Need to do this to a new roof i built without a permit so it looks like it's been there a long time to the county inspectors.....
And I'm back for a reminder. Tornado trees destroyed 1/2 my building so I gotta age the new new stuff again. Thanks a bunch
Thanks for sharing your rustic metal information very helpful when deciding how rusty you would like to make your new metal look rustic. Vinegar and salt works. Meurotic acid and Hydrogen peroxide also works, and I wouldn't recommend working with meurotic acid if you don't have to because it's a dangerous chemical but you will definitely get a really rusty product on your new metal rusty metal has become very popular in creating that rustic look I've always liked the older rustic look and it's not as easy to find rusty metal because everyone is looking for the old rusty metal for projects. God-bless.
Nice video my friend. I just subbed to ur channel 👌🏻👏🏻from Denver Colorado
I love this TFS
Thanks! You're welcome.
Hello cute Miss, how are you doing today?
Thanks!!
So what if you want to patina the metal a particular color, say rust colored. Would it still work or is it done for after this process? I want the exterior of my room addition to look like rusted metal but modern.
MrDiyDork: I’ve done proper research on aging metal
Me: I love that cricket sound in the background
Thank you for the demonstration. Do you think this method would work on Pewter?
Awesome thank you
Hello Bette, how are you doing today?
very succinct! just not sure on the pieces right at the end that you'd done the day before...those were treated for same amount of time? Just the prior day, so they continued to darken? thank you
so, have you tried this on stainless steel? I wonder if it would work after an extended time?
Hey! I just found this video and wanted to ask if this process damages the metal, other than changing its appearance? Looking for a way to "age" some siding for a barn - would the metal hold up in a situation like this?
I just happened to have bought an item today with sheet metal and it needs to be tamed. Thanks
Want to oain my wall lantern into a black color. Do u think I can use this process to remove protective layer of calvanized stuff so the paint would adhere better? . I was gonna use bottle spray can paint.
Thanks.
Thanks so much! I've been experimenting with this and your video is very helpful! Can you tell me how you cut the metal? My edges are so sharp that I'm afraid to cut myself.
You're welcome! I cut my metal with a pair of metal tin snips. They're basically a pair of heavy duty, metal cutting scissors. It's helpful to wear a pair of leather work gloves when handling the metal to keep from cutting up your hands.
Do you have to sand paper this first? Mine doesn’t do much with just Lysol.
Does it thin the metal? Does it cause it to become easy to break ?
I cleaned the porch with some stain cleaner that might've had some lye in it. It splattered a bit and made the gutter piping spotty dark grey. Is there a way to remove those spots and get the metal to be light grey all over again?
HAH I wan't the opposite of you:P Want the lye spots cleaned away.
that paper towel texture kinda gave me snake skin vibes. pretty cool
Theoretically, could you put the galvanized steel in tupperware and then thin out the toilet bowl cleaner with water and fill up the tupperware container with the thin solution, then cover the container and walk away for a day? Since the toilet bowl cleaner is thinned with water it might take longer to patina the galvanized steel?
What would happen if you first and maybe second coated it with the toilet cleaner but then used the Salt + Vinegar technique for the last coat?
Hello from iraq well done
Does it keep the look or keep aging though?
so you go to the expense of buying galvanised steel then you strip the protective zinc from it ?
I saw this in a bunch of buildings and houses in downtown Crested Butte, Colorado this past summer. I'm thinking. How are they keeping those roofs from leaking. You wouldn't believe the trouble I have on my shed with corragated roofing and leaks and the roof isn't even rusted. Some of these cheap panels from say Home Depot are not even recommended for roofing material.
Yay 🤗
Will this also work on zinc hinges?
Did you ever go back and try burlap or maybe cheesecloth?
...and would you recommend doing this on a pocket watch?
Hey I found your rusting video, it this one- which lead me here and I now can’t find the video- can you please tell me how to make the rusty 3000! Thanks in advance x
Hi. I have a stainless steel tray.
How could I make it look galvanized?
Will this work in chromed stainless steel?
What sealer do you use after the fact?
Can this punch tiny holes in the sheets?
It's what I'm looking for
How did you cut the metal ?
you read my mind
Can’t find the Lysol you used, there is all kinds of crazy 10x power ones and hydrogen peroxide ones, will Clorox toilet bowl cleaner with bleach work?
I wonder how a lightly misted solutions of water/ 8%-10% Sodium Hydroxide would do?. It seems to have a very nice tinting to raw steel. I have not seen it applied to galv stl.
Ok I know this is a very random question and the opposite of what your video is🙂. I have a galvanized chicken waterer that has rusted. Is there a way to safely restore it so my chickens can drink out of it again ? Thank you for any help.
Very sadly a 'renovator' installed galvanised bench tops in my bench tops in the laundry and now the gal looks like this. It is ugly & I loathe it. Do you have any suggestions to make it NOT look like this or do I have to pay to have the whole lot taken out. It looks like a shed bench which may be fun but not in this house. It looks like the last one with the Lysol left on for hours.Thanks though.

Will it still be magnetic after the aging?
Brittany Murray Yes. No change in that manner. This is a simple chemical reaction. He's just hitting it with an acid in one example and base pH on the other. You could use drano, sulfuric acid, possibly phosphoric, even muratic acid. Keep in mind, it is actually aging the metal.
What is main ingredient in the toilet cleaners?
Great now how would you remove it
Like it
Man, I really miss watching your new videos. What’s up? You ok?
Muriatic acid in a spray bottle works wonders. However, PPE is mandatory. No skin exposed, A high-quality respirator made specifically for vapors. No, the cheap dust masks from home depot will NOT work. full-face safety shield. rubber gloves. Etc.
Wish I had watched this a couple days ago...
Mixing acetone with stay-clean liquid flux does the same thing while being less volatile.
Is this mixed 50/50? Do you leave it on?
@@UraTrowelie yes 50/50 or add more flux if you want it more acidic.
The acetone accelerates the acid.
No you don't keep it on, wipe it off after a few mins and leave it alone for a while. Then clean with dish soap when it reaches the desired effect.
I used muriatic acid and it works perfectly
My experiment didn’t go real well. The peaks attained a grayish patina but the valleys remained shiny. Used Zep
Now make it look like new again LoL
haha
Turn it over!
Use vinega
