The Story
Dark Rust is the wash that turns clean metal into something that's clearly seen a few winters out in the weather. Vallejo Model Wash flows straight into panel lines, rivets and recesses, drying to a matt finish that pulls out detail and streaks rich, orange-brown rust exactly where water would run. Brush or airbrush it on, give it 20 minutes, and carry on painting.
