That's really neat! I'm glad you made a video, I find stuff like that fascinating. 😊
Thank you for the great instructions. I love your work. And I agree, Rio Grande should offer you advertising fees! Lol! It was through your suggestion that I found them. I live in Hawaii and it is expensive here. So, Rio Grande is such a help in cost savings. Silver and Gold wire in Hawaii, is 5, yes, 5 times the cost of Rio Grande. So, while Rio Grande may not compensate you in the near future, I am SO grateful to you for pointing me in their direction.
You're most welcome! So glad it was helpful :) Sadly they still don't compensate me, haha
Thanks for sharing! I didn't even know this other product existed!
Nice. Thanks for sharing your tips and tricks!
Great video and safety tips!
Thank you! While I've used LOS and GUN BLUE, had never heard of this product until it was mentioned on a page in FB. Your tutorial was suggested for those of us not familiar with it. And, please, DON'T feel "silly / dumb" doing a tutorial -- there is always someone, such as myself, who hates learning 'the hard way." :-D Now to go find the tutorial you mentioned with the BIG stone to fit that wrap! PEACE ... Connie in Boston

Can you patina regular crafting wire?
What's the best way to give silver plated copper wire the oxidized look?
there was no link for the tutorial of how to make the wire piece in this video, could you state the link of the correct video to look a? thanks.
Thanks for sharing this. Question- do you seal it after using the polishing cloth? I'm wondering if the darker areas would wear off.
I haven't found the need to seal it. Since the dark areas are crevices, they don't get rubbed while wearing, so it won't come off. In fact, a finish like that will develop in the nooks and crannies of any piece that is worn long enough/old enough, even if it hasn't been treated to create a patina. You're basically speeding up the natural oxidizing (tarnishing) process :)
Please don't feel dumb, I would never have heard of this product if you didn't post about it so, thank you.
I would also suggest neutralizing the piece in a baking soda/water mix before continuing to finish the piece, especially if you aren’t wearing gloves.
Thanks for the good suggestion! I haven't found the need, if I'm wearing gloves and just brushing small amounts of the solution on, but better safe than sorry.
So those of us who didn't know how to antique are dumb?
Thank you. You are saying the word Patina wrong though, fyi
Thank you Debra! I get this comment a fair bit. According to Merriam Webster, both pə-ˈtē-nə and ˈpa-tə-nə are correct pronunciations. www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/patina
