INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1: Clean surface with Dixie Belle White Lightning, then rinse.
STEP 2: Base Coat
If the surface is metal, apply a coat of Dixie Belle Prime Start.
Prime Start contains an acid blocker that stops the rust from “eating” thru the patina paint and degrading the metal
If the surface is anything but metal, apply a base coat of regular Dixie Belle paint and let dry. Color choice isn’t really important but you can choose a color that is complementary to the patina paint you are using.
STEP 3: Apply patina paint
Shake Well!!
Patina paint is chock full of ground metal bits which will sink to the bottom.
Shaking is a must!
Using your brush of choice, apply one coat of patina paint and let dry.
The initial coat will be thin.
That’s okay, don’t panic.
Once the first coat is dry, apply a second coat of patina paint.
While the paint is still wet, continue to the next step.
STEP 4: Apply patina spray
While second coat of patina spray is still wet, apply a misting of patina spray over the paint.
Sit back and watch the magic!!
It can take 2 to 6 hours to reach the full effect.
No sealing is necessary, sometimes the surface will have that “chalky” feel and the patina rubs off. To stop this, after everything is dry, run a damp rag over the surface and let dry. When you are finished, as a top coat you can use the Dixie Belle Patina Guard, Dixie Belle Gator Hide, or no top coat at all. If you don’t top coat, it could continue to patina for a while.
