Ok, so I'll start by saying that this may not be the forum for this particular paint...but you are the most knowledgeable group of paint applying people I could think of.
For those of you that have applied Rustoleum's hammered paints (NOT Hammerite), how did you apply it, and what gave the best results? I am talking about using quarts, btw, not spraybombs.
Did you roll it, brush it, or spray it? If sprayed, what size tip do you recommend, as well as helpful tips?
I found that using the cans can produced mixed results, most notably in getting the color variation right. The hammered effect is easy, the color...not so much. If it's done wrong it all comes out one color, but with texture, which is not preferable. I just bought a quart and have something to paint and don't want to spend forever experimenting.
Thanks guys

Have you had good experiences rolling/brushing it? Is it easy to keep a wet edge? Just so I'm clear, this isn't about practicing, or the best paint, or something...it's specifically about getting the best results from hammered paint, and/or what tip size works best. |
have not sprayed that specific paint... our opinions could vary on what is good to you and good to me. my advice is apply it the way it tells you to
