If its metal, sea spray will do the trick.

A very old trick to make new metal objects look very old is to bury them in a pit in the ground and to piss in the pit for months.
It's used in Asia and the Middle East to make new brass and bronze statuettes look like they are centuries or millenia old, so that they can fool
unsuspecting tourists into believing that they are geniuine antiques.
