This post deals with a weathering question/opinion. A couple of months ago I found an advertisement for the so called "Rustall" system. I have a bad habit of being too spontainous when buying new products! "I've just got to have that stuff"!! Well I have always been looking for a good way to simulate rust and the Rustall systm seemed logical. The pictures were quite convincing. So after shelling out the twenty dollars, it arrived in the mail. I was so excited that I just had to rust something!! I was very disapointed to say the least. First of all after brushing the stuff on to a flat painted surface, allowing it to dry, it looked the same to me!! So much for the impressive pictures! So the 4 bottles that come with it sat on the shelve for quite some time. Then I did something really out of character for a man, I READ THE DIRECTIONS!! I found that the rustall has to have something to cling to. Thats what the bottle of dust is for. First I painted the surface, than while still wet dusted the surface. After drying, I THEN applied the rustall with a needless to say, great result! I now use this for rusting everything!! Any other tips/advise would be greatly appreciated.
