Iron Metal Coating is a little different than the copper based Metal Coatings. The Iron Metal Coating will patina (rust) some after it has dried if the surface has been burnished.
Do you have a process to create a mill scale effect? I have pieces that are made from steel and after welding and grinding, I obviously lose that great factory dark black steel mill scale color. I'd like to be able to return that great mill scale finish look and hide the super shiny steel finish in the areas that have been grinded.
Take a look at this video and it should get you close: ruclips.net/video/O1DV9pawKWs/видео.html Many times I would actually recommend diluting it with distilled water to get closer to the hot rolled color though.
Thanks, problem with steel wool treatment was that is very surface, not a patina treatment on the coating.

Nice upload after so long, pls do more examples of all types of patina effects on real brass metal if possible.
Thank you. We will try to do more brass in the future!
