Default How to get a patina on copper? (was: How bendy is copper pipe?)

Peter wrote in message . ..

I think this should make a most unusual fence. Can anyone in the
group tell us if there is anything that can be done to age copper
quicky to get the green patina?

Peter


Clean it properly and brush on vinegar will get it geeen. Do
appreciate that copper compounds are not 100% innocent. If your dog
chews it, s/he may die. Given which I cant recommend doing it.
