Novacan Black Patina for Zinc is formulated to create a rich, deep black finish on zinc came and other zinc surfaces in stained glass work. Standard black patinas are made for lead and solder, while this version is matched to zinc so the came darkens evenly.
This is a chemical patina for metal, not for glass. It carries strong hazard warnings and is harmful if swallowed, so use it with ventilation and gloves, avoid skin and eye contact, keep it away from children, and follow the manufacturer instructions and the Safety Data Sheet. Comes in an 8 oz bottle.
