Antweaking

The act where people buy what they think is a valuable antique, find out it is worthless, then try to make it look valuable, usually involving copper and stain.
I went to the antique shop yesterday and bought this old looking dresser. I found out it was worthless so I was antweaking it with stain and sold it for $60.
