I plan to permanently change the color of my truck from the current blue to Rally Red.
Previously I played around with the blue color, so I decided to actually use the rally red color, and see how it turns out.
Wow I am happy.
First I had a bunch of joist hangers left over from a backyard shed I built last summer, so I thought I would use them for my latest experiment.
I sprayed two coats of the red, and let it dry for about 2 hours, and then sprayed the "rust in a can" over the red, and let it dry overnight.
The next day I sanded it lightly with 1000 wet dry, and this is how it came out.
The pics with 2 hangers, show the original shiny red paint on top, and the finished result underneath.
Any comments would be welcome.

Thanks for your write up. I plan to do this to my Suburban. This is rusted primer. I would like to add some color then enhance the rust to smooth it out. I will probably add some air brush work to also enhance the effect. Looking forward to your video..
