These turned out great! FYI - hydrogen peroxide is very hard to find right now due to COVID. I bought two planters and required 2-16 ounce bottles to apply 4 thorough coats of the 'special mix'. The pictures show how they turned out. I probably could have applied more, but was hesitant to to keep going since they are expected to turn more naturally over time. Highly recommend not placing these on pavement or near anything you're afraid will get ruined from rust transfer or drips.
