Thanks to everyone for your kind words. Yes, I must admit it was fun. I tried using a product called scenic rust but alas I found it didn't work too well.  What I did have success with, was the hairspray method, the base coat being enamel and top coat acrylic with some salt thrown in. I also used pastel chalks quite extensively too. Regards Steve
