What is Rusty Patina?

This matte, semi-opaque paint provides a realistic rust-like finish. The more layers applied, the deeper and darker the effect. With its thick texture and natural drying, it mimics aged metal surfaces beautifully. CE & EN 71 certified and non-toxic.

How to Apply

• Stir thoroughly before use – do not dilute.
• Apply directly using a brush or sponge.
• Allow 3–6 hours between coats depending on humidity.
• Best results with natural drying; use warm air if needed.

Where Can It Be Used?
