First patina tests !!!

[Jason Spring]

I m trying to turn my bezels into faded one !!!
For that, I use salt , "javel water" and time of course.
Here is my first test, it has taken 2 days in the javel water with salt.
Only the colour is interesting, it turns between dark blue, grey, violet and red.
Here are the pictures :
the one on the left (smooth blue)

At the same place but with some red in it

Did you buy the javel water "ready to use" or do you mix it yourself?

[Jason Spring]
