Does anyone know if you can paint over Modern Masters rust effects with milk paint to achieve a Rusty Chippy Paint look. I am trying to get the look of an old metal painted sign that the paint is chipping and staring to rust.Thank you, Mary

Yes but definitely dont use wax, and its best to seal the paint first then do rust effects. This may help https://www.thatsweettealife.com/diy-rustic-paint-finish-rusty-ol-blue-chevy/
Yes. Modern Masters paint reacts to the metal in the paint, not anything beneath it. Good luck!
