Steve, did yo do anything to prepare the metal before using the antiquing solution? Any stripping, buffing, cleaning, or did you just take the sword "as is" and apply the mix? |

Like what you did there Steve, but you stay away from that nice shiny Black Prince Mister! :) |

Whoa there Russ! Close your eyes and take long, deep breaths. Go to your happy place. <runs for door with Black Prince while Russ has his eyes closed> :lol: |

Nice, Steve, nice. :cool:
I'm a huge fan of the antiqued look and finish. And I think you did an excellent job! Very nicely balanced finish throughout. Very well done, sir, :) Jesse |

Steve that looks fantastic!
I've never been much on aging, but results like yours are really tempting me to give it a try. |

Well, I think that's just gorgeous. Whew! When I saw the title of this thread I was afraid your post would begin, "Does anybody know a good lawyer?"
I really do love what you've done with this piece. Congrats on a very successful experiment! |
