Best answer
A mix of cement, uni bond and a bit of compost. The compost helps it weather to a more stone like colour. Paint uni bond on the sink and apply cement mix by hand. Use rubber gloves! The rough and ready application gives a more natural appearance. I did an old sink years ago and looks good still.

Put moss and buttermilk into a blender and blend it good, then paint onto the sink to get the moss to grow all over it.

mixed to a fairly thick consistency. Please don't ask for measurements and quantities as my effort was haphazard but worked! Give it a go.
