Will this kit get me started or do I need another product or prep for black metal table legs(don't know what kind of metal but it is not very heavy)?

This kit has everything you need as far as the paint finish goes. However, you may need to sand the existing black finish down just a bit to roughen up the surface so that the new copper paint will adhere. You may also need to buy two kits to get full coverage depending on the size of your table legs. Just FYI, you will need to apply the antiqueing solution before the copper coat fully dries to get the best results. The instructions weren't clear on that part and I ended up having to start the process over again on my project.

Will this change the color of a bronze sculpture? I want to make it lighter, with green patina

I think it will probably work for you. I used it on a bronze light fixture. I used it vary sparingly and carefully. You paint on one coat first and then the other. I can’t remember which is which but the directions will explain. I’d do it first on a test area that doesn’t show too much to see what you think. I was happy with it.

How can I get the larger kit?

Just keep searching for it.....

Can you use this on plastic?

Yes I use this on 3d printed plastic all the time, just get the primer.

Product stays good for years

I use this product in my artwork from time to time. It works just as it claims and since I don’t use it often, I am especially happy that its shelf life is so long. When properly sealed it can last years.

Antiquing solution

The patina did not work. My teacher and I put over five coats over the gold color trying different techniques, blow drying it, reapplying the first paint, and it did not change to the blue color. It turned out pretty ugly. Today I happened to find an old bottle from a project I did years ago and tried it on a small portion of my pottery. It changed immediately. So this bottle definitely had something wrong in the manufacturing.

Watch out for shelf life

Other reviews talk about shelf life, if properly sealed.I purchased this in October 2022.The project I was planning got suspended - life got in the way. I put the unopened box away in a climate controlled area.Today (10/1/23) I broke it out to do a different project. The bottle of copper was almost totally solidified. It had never been opened - the box or the bottle.So, there was $22.55 down the drain.

Meh.

The base coat went on just fine. The patina didn't really change the color substantially as the picture indicated. Also, I agree with other reviewers who said the directions were sparse. Hopefully, being outside will do the rest of the work.

Let the transformations begin!

Excellent for turning any fixture into an expensive-looking vintage collectible! I used it on cheap Home Depot outdoor light fixtures, they look like I special-ordered them from France ;)
