Not Your Boring File Cabinet Anymore!!

My client founded this piece at a garage sale for $10!!! It was a steal!!
She brought it to me to make it the focal point for her office..
And this is how it was done!

First I cleaned and saded a litle the rusted areas.. (Cool look by the way)





After cleaned and sanded I applied two cans of the Rustoleoum anti-rust spray in brown color..
I let it dry for 12 hours to start painting on it..





With the help of I could used about 5 different colors to achieve this finish..
Dark gray
Light gray
Dark brown
Taupe
Copper





Then after I blended all the colors I went for my Unicor Spit and got
Orange
Black
White
With this natural stain I was able to add drama making it look like rusted and old.











Then.. The personalization!
1213 needed to be added to make it special!





All areas covered now!





After was dry, I sealed with Minwax Polycrilyc.. (2) coats..

















Done!
Give it at least a good (3) days to dry!!
Depending on weather temperature more or less!
