Any idea where I can get lead patination oil apart from Wickes (they
had none - said they don't sell much) ?


I asked the same question in Wickes a while back and was told. "Modern
lead doesn't need it"

Because of course, elemental lead is now _totally_ different from how
it used to be.


Indeed. Total ********. I bough some patination oil (probably from Wickes)
10 years back and the effect was pretty instant and very noticeable...
