Hello and welcome to the forum....I have been using gilders paste and find it to be really cool to use ....I have this blue color that if you mix it with a little boiled linsed oil and Japan drier and lightly dab it on it leave a real lightly irredescent patina....very cool...
I have also heard of people taking some graphite and mixing it with some minwax dark furniture polish or butchers wax get some black heat goin and dab it on you can get a little more shiney specs that goives the irredescent effect....after all of these apps....use some clear laquer to stay the color spray it on lightly...it adds to the irredescence....
hope this helps!!
