    I have found these recommendations.

    You could try a black patina solution available in stained glass supply stores.

    Hubbard-Hall has an antiquing solution called Mi-Tique 1795 that is designed specifically to give Tin an dark antique look.

    There are multiple part paint kits made for doing this. Check out your local paint retailer.

  • z3000:

    take brown paint and splatter it on the can

  • Boopsie:

    They make a product to paint on that is called “Rust It”..even gives the texture of rust..found in craft stores.

    If you’re not in a hurry, just leave it out in the weather for a season or two,,and wet it down every now and again.

    I*ve heard vinegar makes metal look old and rusty. Haven*t tried it myself though.
