For best results the pot and the surface being painted should be at room temperature or a little warmer. When washed, leaves yellow/green stains on fabric, but this can be good when doing a sweat or dirt effect.

The water however seems to be where the magic is starting to happen, with the lighter shades beginning to show through.

Dip the stiff brush, cloth or tissue into the rust paint and immediately dab onto the surface and keep dabbing the paint until the paint dries. Our paint is water soluble and the effects of painting will be lost by washing in water or handling with wet hands. Gently press the damp flat end of kitchen roll against the dried rust paint, and twist the kitchen roll.You can do this by wetting your finger, making sure to remove any excess water before rubbing your finger along the model lightly. The tank image above and other images below were taken from the review below by Roman at Massive Voodoo – please follow the link below to read more. Grab your bottle of Dirty Down Rust and use an old paintbrush to stir the pot and get the sediment out from the bottom.

Further variations in shade can be created by dabbing a damp or wet brush, cloth or tissue onto the painted surface and then leaving to dry. The bottle says that it can be sprayed through an airbrush, but nobody seems to have given it a go yet! Replace the lid quickly during use to prevent the liquid from evaporating or decant what you need to use for a job into a separate smaller pot/container with a lid. A single brush stroke of our normal rust effect has been painted on the right side of the line to allow comparison between yellow rust and normal rust. For a first attempt I think I’ve come pretty close to where I want to be, but it’s not quite perfect.

Starting your painting this way ensures the steel will be seen through the rust later, and your end effect will look more realistic.

Hold can upright 30cm (12 inches) away from the surface, and spray across the surface in one smooth sweep, keeping the nozzle fully depressed. Developed for use in films, TV and theatre on fabrics but can also be used to age elements in model making. Pour on a cloth or tissue and dab onto a surface and keep dabbing in the same place until the paint dries.

Using both water and Dirty Down Rust on my brush I stippled, jabbed, flicked and otherwise just made a mess.I tried a few different application methods for this test: direct application from brush, applying like a wash, and feathering/working out with water from direct application (almost like a streaking rust) – I’ll try to include pictures of each example.

I was actively trying not to think about what I was doing, as I figured that the more I tried to ‘do it right’ the less likely I was to get a natural result.

For a broken, patchy effect apply to small areas/patches at a time and allow to dry – more in some areas, less in others. A little from an open pot isn’t going to do you much damage, but spraying aerosolised solvents around is a good way to put yourself in hospital! You can also shake the bottle to mix all the sediment together, but this way is quicker and less laborious!
