    Hi Guys, Sorry to bring up an old thread, while searching for a rusty paint that i saw on back yard blitz a while ago i want to create a few wall art pieces now for my garden walls mainly out of TP and other pieces of wood. Ozwinner has mentioned blackboard paint mixed with iron fillings then apply the reactor.

    Is this a better option and cheaper than what is offered at paint shops. When I enquired the price was around $100 for 1lt of both the paint and reactor. Any suggestions of getting the same result but using another method like ozwinner
    Cheers
