'Finish' Questions

Two questions:

1). How does one pronounce 'patina'? Is it i). patIna, ii). Patina, or iii). Secret option involving another pronunciation I've not yet thought of?

2). I have a vintage Holton tuba in Satin Silver. Some point down the line I'm thinking of getting a complete overhaul done and am wondering about the finish. I don't greatly care for the satin finish (which is 'smoothish' from years of wear anyhow) and wondered what the different relative cost between getting the satin finish redone Vs. BSP which I'd prefer.

Thanks in advance.
