The best spray I have found to dull the finish is Testors Dullcote. It is a little pricey though since it comes in such a small can. Right now I'm just using a clear flat matte finish spray. Many times I will just repaint a car with flat paint.

There are a few different rust products on the market. The one I use is made by Sophisticated Finishes.

Well I'm not nearly as good as rlyoung, but on mine I just used fine grit sandpaper and wet sanded the parts I wanted to dull(like the roof). I used Testor's metallic copper paint and the end of my brush to dab on the paint to imitate rust. Now, that dirty, sat in a field for ten years look...I'm still trying to figure that out. :wave:

I use Model Master 'rust' paint, 1 oz. glass jar. Works great, sometimes I'll play with it, mixing 3to1, with flat black,or white, or red, depends on the base color I'm working and how obvious I want the effect to be.

As an extra added bonus, the Testors brush cleaner I use makes a great 'rust wash' after awhile. Just spread it with a wet brush, let dry, repeat as needed until you've achieved the effect you're looking for. Be careful as it may remove tampos and WILL screw up any other paint you may have applied.

Look at this PIP Mustang....
Now, I've dismantled and stripped the paint AFTER this pic was shot. I am in need of suggestion: Multiple-choice--which paint/stripe combo should I use....
A) White w/Blue Stripes
B) Blue w/White Stripes
C) Red w/White Stripeshttp://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y139/Ricky2400/DSCF0001.jpg
D) Black w/Gold Stripes
E) White w/Gold Stripes
F) None of the above--and just keep it as a "junker"
