No Name 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.
