If its discoloration without texture change I'd say patina, if discoloration and texture change I'd call it rust.

Aren't they both different ends of the oxidation scale? Like when copper goes blue, that's patina and when iron goes brown it's rust

Depends. Patina is something that adds to something through weathering, rust is deterioration. Bronze becomes relatively corrosion resistant with a proper patina, for instance. Passivation layers are a thing.

I think it depends what the item is. If it’s a wrench with rust on it, then it’s rust. If it’s a dresser from the 1700s and there’s dirt use on it over the years of use, that’s a patina.

It depends, is you leave it, it's patina, if you remove it, it's definitely rust.

Depends! I feel like rust takes your mind to a different mental image than patina. I use them both.

If it’s on purpose and/or esthetic, it’s patina. If it’s by accident/ugly, it’s rust
