Corten Rust Effect Paint

Corten Rust Effect Paint

Ready to Spray Corten Paint Effect

The Corten effect is a quick and easy painting solution for many types of surfaces and objects. Real Corten Steel is a special steel that undergoes a chemical oxidation to make it rust. It is similar to our Corten rust, but at the same time it is different.

The Corten product is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It can be applied on a smooth or textured surface. The textured finish leads to a more realistic appearance with a nice look and feel.

Unlike other rust solutions, the strength of our Corten paint effect paint is the simplicity of the application. The Corten Rust paint is a ready to spray effect. It is important to shake and stir the Corten well to mix all the materials in the can.

Application of Corten Paint

The spraying of Corten is a creative process to make areas of light and dark Rust colour. After applying the primer, spray several light layers of Corten – no need to wait between layers – until the rust colour you want is reached. The surface colour will change from a red orange to a rust with darker areas as you apply more corten. The application does not need to be perfect.

If needed, you can spray more Corten irregularly on some areas to create darker areas for more visual texture. The more Corten you spray, the darker the surface. Then the topcoat is applied to seal and protect the surface.

Although the rust effect paint has not been studied for car bodywork, we have had many clients use the paint for cars, motorcycles and other vehicles. It is important to finish the rusted paint with a transparent topcoat to protect the finish.

The transparent topcoat we recommended for outdoor applications is very matt compared to the automotive matt transparent. In this case, we suggest that you use the automotive matt transparent to increase the scratch and gasoline resistance.

The product does not comply to the Directive 42/2004/CE (VOC values) thus it must be used with the provided limitations only. The colors on screen are for reference only.

A sample kit of this paint effect is available for purchase. The sample kit will have 1 kg of each paint needed to make the effect. We supply primer, special effect paints, topcoat (if needed) and hardener and thinner for spraying. This can paint a 3-5 m2 area.
