Review: Very cool product - Before during and after photos of my dining room table. Turned out way better than I thought it would really cool color combinations I did however buy extra water-based sealer at home depo and put on a couple extra coats just to make sure it had a great seal.
Review: Love It!! - This stuff is incredible!! It was exactly what I needed to create rusty, aged looking electrical outlet & light switch covers to go with my rusty corrugated metal backsplash.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How much in square feet cover this kit?**
A: I was going to try & include a photo of my project but guess there is no where to do that here. The item I used it for was a outdoor shutter about 2.5 feet x 4.5 ft. But it had an open scrollwork design. The amount supplied in the kit was ample and gave it a beautiful patina. If the area were solid then I would have required more. Hope this helps.

**Q: Hello can i use on plastic model kit ?**
A: I use this stuff on plastic model cars. it works way better than i expected. its nearly perfect for styrene models. I have not used it on resin, but i suspect it will work equally as well. use sparingly.

**Q: Can i spray this product?**
A: Yes, everything is water based; it will have easy clean up.  The iron is pretty thick, that would be the only product that may give you difficulty.

**Q: How thick are the paints (particularly the copper)? I am applying on punched tin and am wondering if I'll have problems with the holes clogging.**
A: the copper and bronze are both thinner paints, thinner than latex. The iron is a very thick paint.  ALSO--shake the copper very well before you use it!!!!

### ⭐ Metal Effects product.
*by A***O on November 24, 2023*

I love this product you never know what result you will get. However the price has gone up to a ridicules amount for a 4oz bottle. When I originally bought the product I purchased it at a paint dept in a larger retail store and they don’t vary the 16oz kit. Trust me I have searched. Now I have come to Amazon and paying about 4 times the mount it was in the store and it’s a small amount. Definitely will not buy this product again.
