Apply rust paint by brush or airbrush/sprayer. Rust effect paint looks best when applied to rough, textured surfaces. We used to sell this product under the brand name “Modelmates” Rust Effect – its the same product but now with Dirty Down on the label.
IMPORTANT:
Before use: Thoroughly shakethe pot with the ball bearing rattling andthoroughly stirinside the pot with an old brush until all the lumps are gone.
For best results the pot and the surface being painted should be at room temperature or a little warmer. The colour could dry dark if the surface is too hot or too cold.Tip: keep the pot in your pocket against your skin for an hour before use and shake regularly with the ball bearing rattling.Repeatedly stir and shakethe pot until all lumps have gone. It is very difficult to remove the lumps if the liquid is cool or cold.
Trick to use the first time, but great results whence you master it.
