[Jewelry making - Article 00840] - [Orchid] Katherine Palochak's Iridescent Patina

[Linda Kaye-Moses/Evan Soldinger]

Hello,

    Randy mentioned the ganoksin entry by Katherine Palochak for an
    iridescent LOS patina. 

    http://www.ganoksin.com/borisat/nenam/iridescent-patina.htm

    Katherine suggests using a formula that adds salt to ammonia combined
    with the LOS. I would like to know what fumes this combination would
    produce (John Burgess, are you reading this?). LOS by itself is not
    healthy to breathe, but adding the ammonia and salt might make it
    more unhealthy. Granted we all ventilate well when patinating, don't
    we, but how well would we need to efict those additional fumes? 

Thanks for any help with this,
Linda
