    Huh.  30 steps?  We did this in a workshop, and there were only
    like, 5 steps. 

    1.  Sandblast metal. If you don't have a sandblaster, sand with rough
    sandpaper 

    2.  Color with Prismacolors 

    3.  Prepare Liver of Sulphur, very concentrated, put it in a Pyrex
    dish on a heat coil 

    4.  Dunk your colored piece of metal 

    5.  Ta Da! 

    6.  Seal with your choice of stuff -- spray on, or wax
