This is one method of rusting up a new metal globe body . At the cost of purchasing rusty original bodies these days this might be a handy “How To Video”. This approach gives a globe body that rusty weathered look . In one of my previous videos John Jones used a diff approach using fire to produce a old cracked and blistered paint finish. Now you have two different methods that produce different results.

muriatic acid also works good too take the rust out of porcelain signs,

when using this product it is recommended too stand down wind and

if possible too use a fan too blow away the fumes (do not breath) .. ... cool

Hello Randy,
You are always correct in what you post . I was floored seeing Jeff pour that fluid without a mask and eye protection! Watch it again and notice he actually started to choke a bit in the video on the initial pouring. I
already mentioned that that was not safe because he did not protect himself and he was very sorry and regretful of this . Notice I added a disclaimer. I had to do that because this concerned me.

Thanks for always commenting on my videos. I enjoy feedback!

Rob
