ThinMan, just wanted to let you know I found the patina kits at Lowes. It is American Accents Patina indoor-outdoor. The colors look very similar to what was used on the small pond I have. I bought one - around $10 - and am going to try it out on a galvanized planter and maybe a watering can. I'll post pics if they don't look too bad. ; )

The link below shows the kit. And Nancy said on the potager pics thread that they have them at HD, too. Hope this helps you!
