Turning plastic into iron


otterine

The sanding and flat black spray paint didn't take away all of the sheen and smoothness of the plastic stove, so I stippled on a base coat of satin black by Americana. I then stippled on alternating layers of flat black and satin black, ending on flat black. Using the satin finish base made it look more like iron, which does have a slight sheen. The stippling effect was important to do in thin layers to make sure the texture was in scale. I've turned plastic into iron. :)

Brae that looks amazing! You nailed the iron look:) 

I'm going to have to try my hand at stippling something and see if I can do it!
