Re: Copper patina with stainless backer question
Most SS alloys are totally unaffected by the COPPER F/X™. I usually get 304 or 316, and they're both "immune" to my patinas. There are other exotic SS alloys that may have enough iron and/or carbon in them, that they might be stained a little.
Hope that helps!
