Aged mounts

Posted by Bluesheart on July 9, 2013 at 2:13pm

I covered the purple plastic slide whistle with wood veneer out of a cigar box. Made brass mounts out of sheet brass. Rubbed the veneer with a combination of coffee grounds and shoe polish.Then coated wood and plastic parts with amber shellac and then a coat of matte finish spray. Fumed the brass mounts and screws in vinegar vapor to get some fast patina going.
