How to apply the rust activator?

WITH MYMETAL

MyRust allows you to get a rusted finish by using it on the MyMetal metallic coating. Before its application, the surface must be sanded.

The activator is applied with a spray bottle that allows the surface to be fully soaked or specific parts, depending on the finish you want to achieve. You must let the product act for 8 hours. Then, you must sand with a 2000 grit sandpaper the parts where you want to recover the metallic shine.

After applying MyRust, two coats of MyCover must be applied. The drying time between layers is 4 hours.

The second coat requires a drying time of 12 hours and then a sanding with a 400 grit sandpaper. The sealing process is completed with two coats of the varnish MySealant 2K. Allow 24 hours to dry between each coat.

WITH MYOXID

Once MyOxid has been applied and the product has been allowed to dry for 24 hours, then degrease and sand the surface well. With the prepared surface, apply the oxidizing agent with a spray bottle for better precision and quality in the finish.

It can also be applied with a roller if you wish to achieve a smooth finish. Irregular finishes with a rust effect, can also be achieved with a sponge or spray.

In this case, MyRust also needs 8 hours to act.
The sealing process then begins to complete the application process of the metal coating.
