Homemade Rust Solution For Models

[@KHModelWorks]

Nice demonstration. I guess nothing looks more like rust than .. rust. I like the Ford work body truck . 👍

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes thanks so much.

[@davidvillarmiranda9511]

This is absolutely BRILLIANT! Thank you for this amazing tip. Love your models btw!

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Thanks so much man !

[@vasanthasam2017]

I'm from Sri Lanka and i was trying to make one of😮 my model cars rusty but end product was not good. Then I found your video and did as explained. Wow it's really beautiful now. Thanks for your valuable video.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Thanks man . Awesome

[@jeffreyplummerhtd4life740]

I’m having trouble getting it to break down. I was told to cut it up and also add peroxide to the mix. I never added salt to it. But I’ve had my mixture setting up overnight and it hasn’t changed much. It started to do a reaction at first but then stopped. So I guess I’ll just try your way and see how it goes

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Alright man . Remember Steel wool is best. It's easy to get the wrong one . Good luck

[@graywolfeternityguitars9977]

Thanks for sharing. I'm a woodworker and I have used this method for making wood look aged never crossed my mind to use it on plastic models but I will on my next build it looks more realistic than what I have been doing.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey that's cool ! Thanks and I'm glad I could help.

[@ccl5141]

Nice concept , but it doesn't work. I tried three times with no success. I followed the directions , but had absolutely no luck. I tried the SOS pads and also some old steel wool from a prior attempt to make rust , and both ended with the same results No luck. Too bad because as I said it would have been a neat idea.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Don't give up. Could be just type of wool I'm guessing. I use mine and make mine all the time.

[@1Epicdoom]

You can get plain steel whool at any hardware store lowes homedopot even walmart in the paint sector you can also use a 9 vokt battery and get it to oxidize faster i make irin oxide this way but i use a steel nail inplace of the whool

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Oh nice ! Thanks

[@juancastillo59]

Thanks for the tip.. and a have a question where are you buying the pads..??

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Thanks. Any store should have them. If you can find them without soap there best

[@can-cruiser]

If you want real steel without "soap" you can use "steel wool" instead. Easily found in most hardware stores.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes

[@robmartorelli6524]

Thanks for sharing bud, your models look awesome.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey much appreciated

[@Heizekel77]

Great vid dude, I'm about to build another crawler RC soon enough, got the kit already and watching/reading all I can about getting the rusty look :)

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Stay Tuned I'm gana be making a rust effect paint job. Thanks

[@Heizekel77]

Awesome video. Working on a 1954 Chevy pickup abandoned on a country road. Greetings from sunny Puerto Rico. Keep up the videos!!!

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Awesome thanks so much sounds great

[@theintake8961]

Nice how to video Bama! Your models look great! Something I will definitely use! 😎👍

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey much appreciated thanks so much

[@brerrabbit9585]

I used your method for a 'paint job' on an old 1-25 th. scale Lindberg Model T Ford coupe that I made into a rat rod. It has that lousy, junky look I was shooting for. In other words, it looks EXCELENT! Rather than throw away my junkers, I`ll just rust `em out. Thanks!

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey ! Thanks so much means alot I'm glad I could help

[@peterdering4922]

To save time washing the soap out just buy steel wool that is used by plumbers.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes exactly

[@deputy3690]

Great tutorial! So what do you use the dull coat spray for?

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

A final coat to seal it all and to make it more dull

[@mikewagner9553]

Just found your channel. That is out standing

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey thanks so much

[@SwiftSlots]

I assume 0000 steel wool would do the same? Or any steel wool?

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes for sure

[@newfenrisrailroad621]

if you need steal wool go to the paint section in lowes or home depot its by the sand paper

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Awesome

[@sirknickolissiv4083]

I can't wait to try this! Those models are great.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey thanks

[@marsgarage8217]

Nice tutorial. Goanna try it..when I do my rust I use acrylics, and it works..but to Hava a rust wash that is something I Need to try. .thanks

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Awesome! Thanks for checking it out

[@eastcoastuk9705]

Thanks for the how to Bama , looks great on the models. real deal.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey much appreciated

[@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

@@michaelhintzmikesminiature1812 thanks

[@exlewisrc3674]

Very cool method🤘🏻 do you just add a clear coat after it’s applied to hold it on?

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

No need to but you could add clear dual

[@thebrinx9632]

Cool rust solution, I've used (spray) paint "spatters" but your method looks way better.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey man thanks so much

[@shotdowninflames3466]

Interesting video! Maybe a dumb question, you brush this on after you painted the vehicle or before? Other videos I've seen with salt technique they spray over rust color then sand thru the paint in places. Thanks

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes there are many ways on doing this. This solution is a wash, it goes on after the painted surface. Dusting can be added after

[@LarrysModelShop]

Nice tutorial. Your video was nicely timed, usually anything more than 10 minutes is starting to get long, but you will see longer ones. This is a great way to make a wash for rusting models, thanks!!

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes I try to keep my videos short and simple and to the point. Much appreciated

[@techos32]

Wow that looks great. Want to do these to some of my rc cars. New sub

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Much appreciated remember finding correct iron scrub pad is key

[@Bruces-Eclectic-World]

Awesome video! I took notes so I can give this a try... LLAP 🖖

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Go for it! Much appreciated

[@DodgerMohr]

Thanks 👍 Question, can you apply a clear coat over the model without effecting the rust?

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes a dual coat only never use gloss over rust. If the coat is to heavy then it will be hazy and white-ish if this happens then brush on little of the rust

[@DodgerMohr]

Thanks 🙏

[@TLowrimore]

That was pretty cool I'm about to make some of that up myself. I bet that would be great for exhaust systems underneath the car

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Yes it's great stuff. Thanks

[@georgetaylor5482]

Thanks for sharing, I'll give it a try.

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Awesome man it's easy

[@diclexicschweb4748]

I do the same thing but i make a dust jar and mix i littel in to paints and i can still make a wash with it when i need for me it better for long time storage

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Nice ! Thanks for that info

[@modelrestorations]

Great tip! I did something very similar ahwile back but used brilo pads with no soap. I never thought about using salt. That is sooooo much faster! 😮

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Hey thanks and yes !

[@backwoodsbushcraft2633]

[@reconmodelsvaughn469]

It's called steal wool at every hardware store don't use the soap pads get the fine wool pads this is a very old technique

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Thanks man

[@sirknickolissiv4083]

"Steel" wool actually.

[@toml802]

So #0000 steel wool won't work?

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

I don't think so. But you can give it a try. Let me know in comments. I believe it's only iron

[@boss9mustang404]

It'll work, I've made some with it

[@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk]

Nice

[@toml802]

Steel/iron. Both are ferrous materials. @@BamaScaleModels-vq7hk

[@sebaru555]
