The magical reusable product that gives new brass or bronze hardware an aged natural patina look with just a quick soak!
When you need new hardware to look old, a quick soak in The Patinator and your shiny new hardware will quickly start to develop a warm natural patina. Soak for a short time and get a reddish brown color. Longer soaking creates a dark brown and eventually black graphite color. No spray paint, just a natural living finish that will continue to age and look great with no care.
Developed to work specifically with brass and bronze, but it also works on steel and other metals with slightly different coloring results. It will NOT work on lacquered metals unless the coating is stripped from the hardware first. It can be diluted with water for a slower working time.
One more great thing: The Patinator can be used over and over before loosing its effectiveness. One bottle can do almost a full house of hardware!
- One 16 fl. oz. bottle per order
- Can be used over and over

This stuff works great! I had brass hardware that I wanted darker. Once I stripped the laquer off, the hardware immediately darkened how I wanted. Looks very naturally aged, much better than spray paint!
