Maxed Out - 6 Ways to Patina Copper

- In this video I test six different methods to patina copper. Using a smaller extra sheet of copper, I use saltwater, vinegar, saltwater vinegar, muriatic acid, diluted muriatic acid, and ammonia in different squares to see which of these solutions will give me the best results. This test was crucial to my work for the Iron Oak sculpture which will feature over a thousand patinated copper leaves.

if you wanted them with a deep red patina you heat it until it is red hot and quench it in boiling water. Would look gorgeous for an autumn copper tree
also ammonia and salt gives blue
This was super, super useful and I'm so glad your fave ending up being a really feasible option for anyone.
I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I'm excited to see more progress on this project, and moreso to see its completion! It's always a joy to see you work. Its refreshing to see a fellow maker so passionate, enthusiastic, and inspired in their craft. I believe it would be a joy to work with you on a project one day, but alas, I come from Michigan lol
I appreciate that buddy! Can’t wait to share the journey with you!
I remember the live where you got started on dipping the leaves in the picked solution 🥰 so I had a hint of what you would choose XD
Excellent! Thank you for coming along with me on this entire journey!
Always a good day when Max uploads!

Hello to Zimbabwe!! I’m so glad you enjoy the content my friend!
I feel like a lawn/yard pump sprayer would be a great way for you to hit a ton of leaves in a quick manner
Totally! As long as the salt didn’t clog the nozzle, but worth a try!
Yes!
😄
Like a true mad scientist
Hah! Science!
This tree is going to be so cool!!! Imagine the future generations that will get to see it too!
It will be there many many years to come!
How long did it have to sit outside? I want a patina some copper wire to make some cuff bracelets with.
can you do vinegar and salt wash after a muriatic acid wash?
I don’t see why not!
What about amomia and salt
You live on oregon?
I need help to get patina on our new copper roof…. Made a huge mistake to replace our old roof, the new is too shiny and doesn’t go with the exterior of the home… help me please withe the process or connect me with some professionals… I am in PA ….. thank you in advance
A hand sprayer for landscaping filled with one of these concoctions would work
Vinegar in salt is pretty much the best option.

Sending that love back to India! ☺️
Can’t go wrong with vinegar & salt chips 🎉. Why not use it as patina
