How do I let the products rust best and get a beautiful patina (Edelrost)?
Rust is iron oxide which forms on the surface of iron and steel when it comes into contact with water and oxygen. The iron oxide is a yellowish to reddish-brown substance. It is called precious rust when the rust is desired and evenly covers the object. Standard products are delivered without a rust patina. The steel still has a slightly greasy protective layer, which prevents rusting a little.
At the slowest: Once you have fixed your subject in the desired place (outside) the metal will lose its protective layer after some time and begin to rust. How long this goes depends on how exposed it is to the elements. Your product will thus very slowly acquire a beautiful patina. Patience is required here.
Would you like to speed it up a bit? Degrease the metal! This will allow oxygen and water to get to the metal better. The best way to degrease the metal is with acetone or brake cleaner. These means work best and are at the same time cheapest likewise isopropyl alcohol and spirit can be used. If you do not want to use all these means, take detergent and warm water. Pay attention in any case to the correct protective clothing as well as correct handling of the cleaning products.
It should still go a little faster? Take a spray bottle and fill it with water and salt. Spray the metal a few times and leave the object in the rain if possible. Always let the object dry before spraying it again with the water/salt solution. Alternating between wet and dry will speed up the rusting process. To make it go even faster, you can also use acetic acid or hydrochloric acid for spraying. The better the object is degreased and the more evenly you spray everything, the more even the rust patina will be.
