    This is really cool. I've got to try it out.

    Hi! I just recently used the Modern Masters on a project and it came out more yellowish than the rust I was going for. Can you tell me what I did wrong and how I can get it to be more rust/orangey looking? I really like how it turned out, in fact I love the pic of the one wall you show and it has quite a bit of yellow, however, there is just too much yellow for this project. Did I not use enough of the red primer maybe? Believe it or not, I did the pedastal to my bathroom sink and it looks really cool. Just too much yellow for the color of my floor, which has more rust in it. Thank you, Juli
