Oxidized Finish
Oxidized Finish
(OP)
I have a weldment - mild steel square tubing - that I wish to give an oxidized or "premature" rusted finish to, strictly for aesthetic purposes. Its for an outdoor ornamental product.
Can anyone help me with a process - chemical application or like - to achieve this finish?
Thanks!

If you have finished it one way to accelerate rusting is to expose the surface to a salt spray. The structure will have to be cleaned by blasting so you will have a more uniform rusting.

You know that these will continue to rust and they will bleed where there is runoff?
