This is really interesting! I am using scopas cupra on a cold cast bronze relief. I am going to buy more to get that ancient look, and leave it on for days. If I could only find a raw chemical though that would do the same thing. this might reduce the price for scopas cupra by the sculpture suppliers when they put their own label on.

Quite a few recipes on chemical/artificial patination & colouring.
