CQS43001
CQS43001 Bronze metallic patina (solvent-borne)
Solvent-borne bronze metallic patina. Sprayed in a single coat over sanded PU or acrylic primer/enamel; after 5–10 minutes the excess is wiped back by hand with a Scotch-Brite pad or steel wool, leaving bronze flake in the pores, profile recesses and on the edges for an aged / decapé look with a metallic shimmer. Fast-drying, easy to wipe back, very low consumption. Must be locked in with a clear lacquer.

Mixing matrix
- S10Thinner% by weight: 100–200 %official% by volume: 100–200 %official
Standard reduction for spraying (official page and dealer: S10 100–200 % by weight and by volume).
S10 gives fast drying and a harder film (dealer). Less thinner = richer bronze; more = lighter, more see-through patina.
- S2000Thinner% by weight: 100–200 %dealer
When you want easier wipe-back/sanding: dries a bit slower but comes off more easily (dealer).
Dealer gives '1–2×' in the text; the components table lists only S10.
- % by weight: 100–300 %catalog
Wider range per the 2025–2026 catalog — for a lighter, more transparent patina.

Cloth or pad
Officially 'spray + rub': after spraying, the excess is wiped back by hand with Scotch-Brite or steel wool.
Process and compatibility
- Substrate preparation
- Apply over cured, sanded PU or acrylic primer/enamel (schedules: APS20 + APL20 or ATS20 on oak after P240–P320 + K120 / K60–K80 pads; PPS20040 + PPL20 on PU foam after K120 pads).schedule
- Sanding
- Excess is removed by hand: t-color.ru schedules use Scotch-Brite 07448 / S UFN (oak) or No.2 steel wool (PU foam) after 5–10 min. The special-effects catalog calls this sanding after drying (material stays in pores, recesses and on edges); dealer: S2000 makes it easier to sand back.schedule
- Temperature and humidity
- 20–25 °C for application and flash (schedules).schedule
- Don'ts
- Don't leave the patina without clear lacquer — it isn't a topcoat; unprotected metal flake dulls and rubs off.
- Don't apply over uncured or unsanded primer/enamel — it grabs everywhere and won't wipe back.
- Don't wait too long before wiping back: past ~10 min it gets harder, especially when reduced with S10.
- Don't flood it — 80–100 g/m² is already the reduced wet amount.
- Don't forget to stir — bronze flake settles and you'll get patchy colour.
