Patina Lamps transformed with Modern Masters Metal Effects

I am excited to show you how I  transformed my lamps with Modern Masters Metal Effects Patina paint. Calling what I did painting is a tad off. The Metal Effects is actually an oxidation process to create beautiful faux patina finishes on any paintable surface.

As you will see their kit transformed my lamps into patina Goddesses.

Modern Masters are “The Alternative to Ordinary.” I wholeheartedly agree.

Their line of paints are very different, to say the least, and not limited to Metal Effects.

LAMP BEFORE:

I have two metal lamps with a nice style, but too dark to go with my new home decor. The lamps were stored away in the basement and became perfect subjects to be transformed with Modern Masters Metal Effects Patina paint.

Metal Effects Patina

There are 3 colors. Blue Patina, green patina and rust finish. For the transformation of my lamps, I picked Green Patina and could not be happier with the results as a first time user. I am grateful to this gold mine of a paint company, Modern Masters, who were kind enough to send me the Metal Effects Kit and all opinions are 100% my own.

The first step is to paint your piece with the primer and let it dry for 12 hours or so.

While the second copper paint coat is still wet, spray the Patina aging solution. It reacts with the metal particles in the copper paint and zooms up the oxidization process creating a stunning patina finish. It’s brilliant what this paint system does. I have to tell you too that after spraying the aging solution it was fun to watch the old world style creation come to life before my eyes so quickly.

The key is the aging spray solution. I found that spraying a light mist in a circle cloud pattern and not being in a hurry created the best effect.

Step 2 is the Copper paint for Modern Masters Metal Effects patina paintThe coverage of the primer and copper paint was like a dream.

This is a paint I will use again and again. As I look around I have many ornate candlesticks (oh those will be beautiful), a chair, containers and a large floor lamp I could transform with Modern Masters Metal Effects.
