How to Use

Ensure the surface is clean, dry and free from dust or oils before application. Shake the can thoroughly for 2–3 minutes prior to use. Spray from approximately 25 centimetres away using smooth sweeping motions and apply thin, even layers with at least 2 minutes drying time between coats. For more realistic oxidized effects, layer Rust Effect Brown and Brown Orange over each other while varying intensity and coverage. Allow the coating to fully cure for 24 hours before applying additional paints or protective coatings. When working on polystyrene, pre-prime the surface completely using Montana Styrofoam Primer. For best results, apply between +10°C and +25°C and always test compatibility on a hidden area before full application.
