Patina paints for Bronzo.. Junk? Or blessing?

[beau_bands]

I've ordered my KW 382 V3 from Trevor. In anticipation, I've been looking at ways of cheating the patina time. I liked Philonious's tips on aging with liver of sulphur, but that's too black/brown for what I was thinking. I also read about the eggs in a bag. I didn't see any results from that method. So after a few google searches, I saw recipes for all kinds of chemical mixes to age bronze. Finally I searched patina paints on the bay. I came up with a few. I wondered if anyone has used this stuff, or anything like it.
I want the blue/green tint rather than brown. Could that be done by maybe dunking the watch in salt water every day before work, then letting it sit in the sun?
Ideally I want something like this

Do you guys think this stuff might work?

Thanks!

All good things take time. Except sex. But that 30 seconds is so good it has her begging for more!

That is a horrible idea.

Sea water is the only way to get green.

Personally the green effect is my favourite. Saltwater works, otherwise the nice thing about the bronzo is You can try out different stuff. Best idea imho is to get something else made of bronze (coin, spoon, jar etc.) and try out more aggressive things first. Lots of videos on youtube too. You sure will have fun.

Let it patina naturally....or if u are like me and live by the sea, i wear it to the beach every weekend and swim with it etc..Patina that develops naturally is nicer than forced ones. Forced patina just looks unnatural imho...

Did you get yours waterproofed? May I ask which version of the watch you own?

I am just curious if it's safe to swim with these on because I'd like to do the same thing.

Do you guys swim with yours? Do you know if both KW and ZF are waterproof enough for that kind of exposure?

My KW is but you can always get it tested at your local watchsmith.

How about leather straps+ salt water?

My KW Bronzo has been in the ocean many, many times......... Never an issue.
