The Patinas may be applied with a brush, sponge or by spraying using the spritzer nozzle.Applying one coat of Steel over another metallic and applying the Patina creates a two-tone effect of colors.Steel will react with the Rapid Rust or Green Patina.It is very important to apply the Patina or Rust while the metal is wet or oxidation may not occur (the Dark Bronze, however, may be completely dry and still react to the Patinas.) Steel requires heavy coats for good rusting to take place, so an extra “padding” of color is suggested.

While the second coat of metal is still damp or tacky the Patinas are applied. The first coat should be dry before the second coat is applied. Two coats of the Metallics are needed for adequate coverage.It is a good idea to dedicate a brush for the applications of the metals as metals residue could contaminate other products. Apply metal colors with a soft brush, sponge or rag.All porous surfaces should be sealed with an acrylic paint prior to apply Magic Metallics.For example, ceramic bisque is porous and water can seep through the inside to affect the metal on the outside. Sealing the inside of porous craft surfaces will prevent continued oxidation.
