Not sure what other products are like, but I'd buy this one again in a heartbeat.
I have allergies, but I haven't smelled any odors with these products, but I've also been very careful.
I don't think that anyone should NOT buy this because of the warnings. They are there for their purpose and oxidizers ARE dangerous.
One thing I have found is that you need to put on a rather thin layer of the actual metal fluid.
Then just play with the application of the oxidizer. Make sure you use plenty of the latter though, and if you want a build up,
finish a layer and then place another. With a thick layer of the iron put down, the oxidizer has to work extra hard to make it all rust.
It's worth the lack of waiting to be patient and put down thin layer after thin layer. You can get some surprising effects with this.
And you really can't ruin anything by applying too much oxidizer. It's easier to use than you'd think, and quite forgiving.
READ UP ON APPLICATIONS BY REVIEWERS, as the packaging doesn't tell you anything.
Also, DO NOT USE THE SAME BRUSH for both bottles. Make sure you clean the brush for the oxidizer too, you don't want to
bring iron into the oxidizing fluid. Another great reason to be patient and put down thin layers. Cover completely with the oxidizer.
I've had success on cardboard flutes, (painted AND clearcoated no less), as well as metal and different model plastic pieces.
Original:
So far so good. I've read a lot of reviews about this one, AND others. Ultimately this arrived from Blick's Art Supplies, and I've had decent luck with them so far.
I was skeptical at first, but this is a real trial and error thing. I'm using this for modeling a diorama, and was pleasantly surprised
at how it turned a piece of cardboard into a genuinely rusted article. I haven't loaded up on the layers yet, but am planning on doing so soon.
I did a treatment on a plastic barn roof too, and with some practice and good buildup, it's going to look fantastic.
They have a lot of warnings on the box, I mean you ARE essentially breathing something that makes metal shavings rust almost before your eyes, so I'd be careful. But I didn't have the overwhelming fumes that I was concerned with. And as always, one should be gloved and have eye protection. The fear wasn't necessary, but more practice is. I think this is probably an excellent product. I see more of them all the time.
Be cautious and careful, but practice a lot, put on lots of the metal fluid (this bit has definitely changed since initial use, and I may have meant to say "oxidizer" instead), and vary your application time of the oxidizer, with repeated apps, and see how it works for you. Looking forward to practicing a lot more!
Looking forward to trying this on future projects and other surfaces.
It ages like you would expect rusty metal would, starts out very orange wherever there is a build up of the metalized coating then over time turns brownish, it retains the rusty texture throughout. The change to brown can be sped up by using a stiff bristle brush like a tooth brush and brush away the orangeish areas, but wait a few days until the oxidizer has had time to work thoroughly, otherwise you may have to reapply the oxidizer.
