The perfect mini project for adding life and fresh basil to your kitchen. Now’s the time to recycle those empty cans and give them a rugged, rusty look. The metal-effect rusty finish kit really does the job for me.

  1. Clean the empty can thoroughly and ensure the surface is fully dry.

  2. Using the Modern Masters Metal Effects Rust kit, apply the primer onto the surface and let dry.

  3. Once dry, apply the iron effect with a brush. Let dry for one hour.

  4. Tape off all unprotected areas, and apply the activator to magically make the rust appear. Let sit for two hours for the finish to fully activate.

Other Materials:

  • Handles
  • Handsaw or Table Saw
