You mix 1 c of hot water with your LOS and other ingredients, and the other c is just plain hot water. You put your pieces in the plain hot water to heat them up *before* you start dipping into the patination fluid.Cyndi Lhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01564900810103675653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10301121.post-50564668043048524332011-06-06T11:51:51.324-04:002011-06-06T11:51:51.324-04:00Very cool, Cyndi! I do have a question about the liver-of-sulfur patination solution in Katherine's post. It calls for 2 cups of hot water, but it only says to mix the liver of sulfur, ammonia and salt. Is this correct? It doesn't look like you would have a solution to dip things in unless the hot water is mixed with the other ingredients. I ask because I want to try this - just hot water and liver of sulfur makes copper very dark almost instantly, not the effect I want.Dianahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10828934507373117828noreply@blogger.com
