Zinc & Patina
by Tammie
Answer Patina for zinc has been a problem for most people that try it. The easiest way to get around the problem is to tin the zinc, before you put it on your panel (because it's easier). After the panel is finished, just use the same patina on the zinc that you use on the rest of the panel. Some people resort to painting the zinc black with Rustoleum paint. If you browse through the submissions on the Copper Foil Questions, you will find other questions about zinc and patina and other things to try. |

You can't imagine how much I wish I had found your incredible website before I spent many hundreds of dollars on lessons, dvd's, tutorials, etc. I can tell that everything I need to know can be found here. All I can say is "Thank You!" Larry
I can't thank you enough for this site. The new search feature is amazing and it makes it so easy to find exactly what I am looking for. Thank you again! Laurie
Your site is fantastic! I took a six week class four years ago and recently started again (after forgetting almost everything I learned!). I have to say that your site is excellent and I can't wait to practice the techniques you've shown. Scarlet
I'm a subscriber to your "Stained Glass Gems" and I just wanted to say THANK YOU for your wonderful site! This is by far the best glass site I've run across. I recently purchased your publication on Patina FAQ and it's very helpful for me... I like to have hard copies of info so I added it to my library. Suzanna |
