Get CALL FOR ART: Photo CDs/fees MUST BE POSTMARKED BY FRIDAY, too, so please send via Priority, Overnight Mail, UPS, FX…or HAND-DELIVER, if you haven’t entered yet. Some patinas work better than others, a lot of "trial and error" may be necessary to get you on to a path to success.ĬA Artists, Sculptors & Friends, Here’s A FINAL REMINDER! Please share your art entry in our 3rd California Sculpture SLAM, w/an on-line ENTRY DEADLINE FRIDAY, MAY 15 at 5pm. In other words, after your metal-laden coating is applied to a surface, and while it is still wet, the patina chemical must be sprayed onto that surface in order to react with the metal within. In either case, you will generally have to use what we call a wet-on-wet technique to patina the metal. The tortoise shell on the other hand is based on polyurethane chemistry, and is much harder, tougher, and more weather-resistant than the acrylic medium. They differ chemically, in that the acrylic gloss medium is, as stated, a pure acrylic. Look at our acrylic gloss medium and our tortoise shell. This material is raw, uncoated metal while the bronzing powder is flake that is polished and has a waxy coating on it.Įither of these products will work to varying degrees in a water-born acrylic- type medium. In addition, we have atomized copper, which is essentially pure copper in an spherical configuration. I would use #104, which is a slightly larger particle size. They are essentially the same thing chemically, (pure copper) the only difference between the two is particle size. In the bronzing powders category there are 2: #104 and #224. We have a number of different copper powders that you could try and a couple of different water-born media you could use as well. Hi friends! We had a question today about applying a metallic finish and wanted to share our advice with you!
