Ive painted both with copper paint but would like them to have a more textured look. Ive yried all the ideas on pintrest ie...bleach, salt, peroxide, patina paints (to expensive).
YYou can buy copper roofing nails to put in a design.
there is a Copper Patina paint on the market -- https://www.modernmasters.com/landing/homeowners/brands/me and this is a Rustoleum product https://prodigalpieces.com/diy-faux-tarnished-copper-patina/
Have you tried the Rustoleum Hammered Metal in Copper spray paint or the can.... it has an aged look. https://www.amazon.com/Rust-Oleum-210849-Hammered-Finish-12-Ounce/dp/B000C0175U/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1511488577&sr=8-2&keywords=rustoleum+hammered+copper+paint I got this for around $7
The more textured finish will be harder to keep clean, as it will attract grease and food particles.
How many square feet are you talking about? Interior or exterior? My suggestion for interior is to thicken latex paint and pounce it on in a faux painting technique.
Maybe wipe on dark wax or stain and then wipe off the excess? Try a test piece first tho!
you can get copper patina from a stained glass supply store. It will turn your tin into a copper color and you can vary the intensity if you like. It’s really cheap and works instantly. The chemical is copper sulfate.
