miniaddicted Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I'm thinking of trying this for my French country house. I am wondering if anyone has tried this and can show me their work? I'm not looking to make the entire pieces grungy, just not shiny brass. I'm thinking of the shower fixture and the faucets in the tub, handle on the toilet. I will also look to replace the faucet on the wood sink, different story there, cuz the one there is underwhelming...but not the topic of this post.

havanaholly Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Is there a coating on the brass to keep it shiny? If not, what about a wash of umber or perhaps a touch of brown shoe polish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxenro Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Vinegar will age or darken brass. If it is coated with clear lacquer acetone will usually remove it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
