    Most of that will rub out, if not I would move to a better climate!

  7. How do you do the rust through perforations?

    I do the rust perforation with a very fine Dremel tool, as far as the rust itself I soak triple zero steel wall in water until it turns to rust, run it through a screen, and apply it over a satin lacquer clear then Dust the whole thing with hairspray when you're done
     
  9. Thank you Sir. The results are stunning and very realistic.

    That is cool. You have that Midwest rust down pat. I used to do junkyard models years back, but they were merely missing a front clip or a motor.
