This is a hydrocal (plaster) casting that we finished using Bronze B metal coating. The "B" metal coating is an acrylic base with a high bronze content for finishing sculpture. Because of the real bronze powder in the coating it reacts to patinas when wet. In this video we use the Tiffany green metal coating to get a rich, blue-green look.

  • Is it possible to wipe the patena off the high points just after it is applied ? of would that take off your underpainting? The results you get with the patena are very impressive.

  • @Dach101 I have tried that but it winds up looking smudged rather than exposing a clear bronze underneath.

  • can be applied to cardboard?

  • @dianacerda Yes. This is a water based product so it works over alot of different surfaces. Anything that can be painted with an acrylic paint can be finished with the "B" coating.
