Amaco RUB 'N Buff - European Gold, VWARNB08

Product Information

I actually found that dabbing and rubbing the product in with my old make up brush did a decent job buffing – but you can use a clean soft cloth to buff your newly finished item until smooth and shiny if it’s not quite to your liking! I knew that antiquing it to a antique brass or “brushed brass” feel would give it a more timeless look – perfect for my home! I think this would work especially well on things like dresser/cabinet hardware, picture frames, or other smaller detailed projects like adding a contrast strip around the edge of a nightstand.

This could also be really cute to use as a “dipped leg” for a chair or stool! Or for covering nail or screw heads that were taking away from an otherwise fantastic project. The Rub n Buff Product: This Rub n Buff product gives the best texture and patina of the three options, in my opinion! The process to Antique Brass Don’t let the small tubes throw you off, either. They’re certainly small, but the product really works well even with just a small dab. As they say, “a little bit goes a long way”. When I have not been able to disassemble items in the past, I have found that using painters tape generously, and then cutting off excess pieces with a razor blade or x-acto knife has worked well to get even harder to tape areas looking neat.I used cardboard for my outdoor space for spray painting, and a simple drop cloth for my indoor space while doing the Rub n Buff finish.

Rub N Buff Wax is made from a unique blend of imported carnauba waxes, fine metallic powders and select pigments.

Sometimes you find that near perfect piece – except it’s not in quite the metallic finish that you’d prefer. I’d stay away from applications that might need to withstand more wear and tear, OR plan on doing some extra steps to prep those items, and finishing with a clear coat or some other protective finish. Step Number Four | Using your old makeup brush, tap and dab a small squirt of the Rub n Buff onto your item(s). It dries immediately, and won’t “spread” very well, so keep tapping and dabbing until it’s covered!
