Spray Paint Aged Copper Patina Finish

Finished painting the various plaques, corbels, and appliques that will adorn our 2026 aedicula headstone. We used a combination of 4 different spray paint colors to achieve the "aged copper patina" finish. The goal was to try to match the finish of a purchased faux Jacob Marley door knocker plaque. We used Montana Cans Black series "Mermaid" as a base coat, followed by a light coat of Rustoleum "Aged Copper", followed by Montana Cans Black series "Copper Green" and "Seal" colors. Three wood appliques were the test subjects before committing to the spray paint technique. A final coat of Rustoleum clear matte enamel spray paint was applied to weather protect the pieces.
