NoName Patina Prep

NoName Patina Prep

This is a special "soft abrasive" powder with a tiny natural acid component that cleans and deoxidizes metals. It is the perfect pre-patina cleaner. Get smooth, even coloring every time. It is especially effective for preparing copper for enameling and can replace acid solutions. What makes this special is a rounded abrasive. It will actually bring metal up to a soft shine. It takes only gentle pressure to strip nonferrous metals of all contaminants.

Instructions:

Wear rubber gloves. Sprinkle NoName on a damp cloth, paper towel or brush and rub gently. If applying directly to the metal, make certain the surface is wet—then rub gently until all discolorations are removed. The edges and corners will need the most attention. For heavy oxidation removal, make a paste by adding a few drops of water to NoName. Let the paste remain on the surface for up to one minute before rubbing. Rinse thoroughly and apply patina solutions immediately.
NoName can be used on mokume-gane, sterling silver, shakudo, shibuichi, copper, brass, bronze and stainless steel. The special, soft feldspar abrasive is rounded and not sharp edged for a superior, smooth finish. Extra pressure and elbow grease will bring up a soft lusterous finish.
*Also great for copper enameling.

Caution:
Contains oxalic acid. Avoid contact with eyes, flush with water. If swallowed, give milk and call a doctor. Keep away from children.
