Thanks for the thumbs up!Here's the same fan mounted on the front panel, I got the big sprocket done also, looks like part of the front panel is done.
As to details, I'm using a product made by Rustoleum, marketed under the brand name American Accents. It's called Natural Rust. It comes in two parts, first you spray it with the included textured spray paint. Let that dry and paint on the top coat and dab it with a wrinkled paper towel or newspaper. As mentioned before I tried just about everything Metal Effects had and wasn't happy with any of them. I found this stuff at my local Ace Hardware store for $13 and I love it. The texture on the basecoat even makes it feel like rusted iron.
