Great product worth the work.

I have used this product before to apply a green copper patina to a round zinc plated manger. It was insanely cool. Now I'm going to use it to treat rust on a huge rustic metal mailbox. phew when i get to it. this is how it will look like. "Wow Martha, we NEED to be in Kansas because it looks like our mailbox from our farm 50 years ago!" but they won't be in Kansas, they'll be at my house.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Great!: Thinner and Thinner

combined with Iron Paint creates an incredibly bright rusty orange finish. I have used this material for many years and you can apply it to a variety of surfaces. You can create different patterns/textures depending on how you apply it (with a sponge, brush, bottle spray, etc.) and whether you apply it horizontally or vertically (which creates streaks, but it might look cool). love this product!

Pros
  • Easy Installation
Cons
  • A few touches

Lid is leaking again.

I love this line of products and have been using them in my work for a number of years. The problem with ordering activators is that they are liquid and expensive. Even though they come in a sealed plastic bag, they leak EVERY TIME! That last bottle wasn't terrible, but still a bit of a mess in a sealed pouch. Tape the cap as a precaution. You have a 5 star product but leaky caps are wasteful and frustrating.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Out of fashion

BEAUTIFUL RUST EFFECTS

The full range of Modern Masters oxidizing paints is a rust lover's playground! The company's iron, bronze and copper-based paints use oxidizing agents to create true rust and green and blue-green patinas on wood, metal and other surfaces. I've found that temperature and other environmental factors affect the rate and level of oxidation produced, so there's always some guesswork involved when using these paints. But the benefits far outweigh any minor issues. I have used all of the company'sโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Bad bang for your buck - don't waste your $$$

This is my second attempt at creating faux rust on a metal roof with this material. The first attempt was a complete failure as I didn't remove the galvanizing from the roof before painting it with metallic black paint. The second round should have worked as I removed the material, washed, dried and painted with 2+ coats of black iron paint as directed. I let it dry overnight and applied two coats of rust activator 5 minutes apart as directed. From my observation it takes twice as muchโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • ill thought out

Fantastic rust effects! It always works and is worth the money!

I've always loved the rust effects of Modern Masters, but I ran out of the activator. I buy the Modern Masters kit which comes with a small bottle of activator but it's never enough to cover everything that can be done with two bottles (foundation and straightener). I needed more activator and didn't want to buy another set so thought I'd try my own with vinegar, salt and hydrogen peroxide. It worked, but not as well as it really is. This big bottle of activator works just great, giving youโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Quick guide
