Without runs or drips, any size surface in vertical or horizontal position can be converted to a beautiful silver/black gunmetal finish. Great for most metal surfaces including iron, steel, copper, brass, bronze and other metals, the Presto Black Gel and Antique Black Gel are simple and safe to use. The gel clings to vertical surfaces and stays where applied without forming runs or drips or bleeding onto adjoining surfaces. Applied at room temperature, the Presto Black Gel reaction takes about 5 to 10 minutes following the normal surface cleaning to remove oil, oxides and welding flux. Color tone and depth is easily controlled by visual inspection and stopping the process by rinsing off with a wet sponge and allowing the surface to dry. That easy. The Presto Black Gel finish can be highlighted or distressed to achieve a distressed pewter look. Final step is to add a clear topcoat such as a satin-gloss urethane lacquer and topped with paste wax. This provides excellent protection with an attractive appearance.
