Thank you for helping to make STEEL F/X® PATINAS a Reality.Without all of my loyal customers, we wouldn't exist. The STEEL F/X® PATINAS Company Motto is "KAI-ZEN", a Japanese word that loosely translates to: "CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT" I welcome your calls & emails & will do my very best to provide you with all the help & product innovation possible. George, Utah with my wife, Kris and my two sons, Tyler & Trevor. Many of my customers, in a very short time, have become masters of steel patinas on their own work and are producing some heirloom quality works of art! I truly love working in the lab, experimenting with what will work & developing new products. My greatest reward is teaching & helping other metal artisans to produce finished products that are beyond the norm of painting or powder-coating. I have also developed a one-of-a-kind patina, (STAINLESS F/X™), which works equally well on Stainless Steel, Carbon Steel & Copper. I have developed many steel patina formulas that react safely with the steel to bring out a myriad of colors & effects without hiding the polished steel beneath. I have been a metalsmith since 1972, working with precious metals originally, and currently focusing primarily on CNC cut steel art and chemically induced Color Case-Hardening of firearms & custom knives. I was hooked on what could be done chemically, to transform the surface of varying metals. 
The whole process, which I found incredibly cool, took only a minute or two.
My Chemistry teacher showed me how to silver-plate a copper penny without heat or electricity. I had my first exposure to metal-finishing when I was 14 yrs. I am the founder & owner of STEEL F/X® Patinas, which began officially in the fall of 2006.
