This car came out great! The technique worked perfectly. Thanks for the demonstration. Have an upcoming project I will try this on. 🚚😊

[@BOABModels]

I hope it's helpful! I'd really like to try this method again someday but I need to find the right subject - maybe something industrial.

Cheers Mike. I watched a lot of videos in preparation for this build but there weren't any which focused on spray cans really.

Great viddd! Amazing content😁

[@BOABModels]

Thank you. 👍

Just to clarify, I didn't want to go overboard with the weathering on this one but you could easily coat this in salt and hairspray to give it a really heavy rusty patina look. Similarly this could be used with a metallic base coat to just make the paint look chipped. It's very versatile.

Thanks Ive been looking for a video like this on using a car model. Can you comment on advantages and disadvantages to waiting 12 hours like you did?

[@BOABModels]

I'm glad it was helpful. I just left the paint a few hours as I didn't want the toothbrush to scratch the finish where it was supposed to be left unrusted. That's what you meant, right?

[@richvoninski5045]

yes thanks!! @@BOABModels

[@dharalschenk2997]
