The product is delivered in its un-rusted state.
Our stunning new steel sculptures are designed to rust, but we have had so many requests for an un-rusted version we decided to supply our art in the steel format too. This allows you the choice to paint it in a colour of your liking for indoor use or if you desire the rusted style as per our image you simply leave the sculpture outside in your garden and within a week or so rust will soon be forming to give it the classic rustic finish.
Our sculptures are intended to rust & will do easily subjected to our British weather however you can speed up the process by spraying some water on the surface every few days or alternatively add a mixture of 1 part household vinegar to 20 parts water, spray or brush onto the surface a couple of times to quicken up the transformation. The steel composition at molecular level rusts only on the surface and does not penetrate deeper. It is an expensive steel that lasts a lifetime.
It's fun to watch it transform into the perfect garden sculpture!
PLEASE NOTE: should you wish to keep your sculpture in its un-rusted state you must either apply a sealant protection or matt lacquer of some kind to the bare steel, or keep it in a very dry location. All sizes are approx.
