10 times better then the actual Craig & Rose video

Saves a lot of time using a roller for the first coat. I've just done the second coat fingers crossed for a nice finish 😊

[@TXCCY00per]

Thank you for the great how to videos. I will be trying the copper patina look soon.

[@drnh4444]

Has iron filings in it doesn't it? Hence the water.... Getting real rust. Seriously look how cool this looks... And it keeps getting strong over time when the sunlight is on it. Great product. Very clever stuff. Is it the Craig and Rose one?

[@veronicakimbrell6241]

what type of base paint are you using ? _ what activator are you using ? I would love to do this rust effect !

[@MiterasQuilting]

The video would be more helpful if this guy had said what brand or where to buy the products

[@avatara_777]

looks amazing once completed, but no details or mention of the color paint you used, or what the activator is?

[@phillcom3]

It's all Craig rose and their activator. He's not advertising any particular brand

[@ajaspinall431]

Hi can you please tell me what paint you use and what is an activator? Love the effect

[@davidrowan6556]

Could this be applied on top off marmorin plaster

[@cra7g686]

Looks wicked me mate

[@181kittykat]

Is it water in the spray bottle or the activator? Tia 🙏

[@user-cn3ni2wu2m]

What are the product layers again please? I think this would look great on a cast iron pedestal tub. I wonder if I would need a clear coat to seal it?

[@phillcom3]

No needs oxygen

[@patgreen9845]

I’m doing this tomorrow! I’ve bought the wax to seal the wall once I’m happy with the rusting but I’ve never used a wax before, not like this, I’m guessing you didn’t use it? Did you use it on the copper wall? If so what’s the best way to apply it. Thank you!

[@billymccabe5607]

I'm going to do this soon, how did you get on with applying the wax? That's the only thing I'm concerned about

[@waryg2744]

Hi , did you use that wax, did change a lot of the final effect of rust ?

[@patgreen9845]

@@waryg2744 I actually didn’t in the end, I wasn’t sure if it would ruin the effect and cause it to smoosh around so I didn’t bother and I’m really happy actually.

[@patgreen9845]

@@waryg2744 I also haven’t had any issues with it needing to be sealed, it looks as good as it did the day I did it

[@waryg2744]

@@patgreen9845 Nice one.
Thank you for answer, got one more question is it actually so easy to rub off residue ? Thanks again.

[@ayurbaby9139]

I am an artist and would like to apply this technique but you didn't mention the color paint you used, or what the activator is? Does the colour in paint matter? what type of paint you use? Does this work with plaster?Thanks! Grate work!!!

[@jonaspoulsen9232]

I've made my own rusty paint a couple of times, one mixed in light grey, and recently in black paint.. the outcome is almost the same.
I make mine with fine iron powder/filings and mix it up in something called Hammerite paint.

[@lornasouza8521]

I’ve used Modern Masters Iron paint it’s rust activator

[@coawilson2627]

Are you spraying the activator or just water in the spray bottle?

[@bolaorundami5946]

Just water he said.
And he’s brushing the applicator on

[@dachshunddogs1817]

He's using water

[@alberttatlock5104]

What paint ?

[@TheIMobile]

I reckon it’s Craig and Rose rust effect paint. You can purchase the rust activator from them as well.

[@frankpeters6481]

What is the Activator?. Your not explaining? Wh

[@phillcom3]

He dosnt need to. And he's not advertising them

[@user-ti4cr4cv6g]

What is the actavater I herd water acrilic paint or what
