The bronze patina I ordered could not of turned out better. Before beginning the process I had a few questions and Bill got right back to me! The patina manual he has prepared is simple and straightforward to follow. I will definitely be revisiting his company. Thank you!

Bill is an absolute pleasure to deal with. Had some issues with the initial attempts to get the effect I wanted. He walked me through it and we found a combination that works perfect. I cannot recommend his products enough.

Got my basic kit to start things off a couple days ago and finally got a chance to try a couple of them tonight. Needless to say, I will be buying more when I run out and after the wife saw the results, probably a lot more! Shipping was fast also and I bought during the Xmas weekend.

As usual, you had in stock and shipped the products I needed at light speed. With late Christmas orders for my products it was essential that I get the supplies I ran short of in a timely manner, and of course Bill and Steel F/X came through!

The rusting agent I purchased works perfectly and my wife uses it on many of her metal art projects. I used your flame FX on a WWII art project for an Army Veteran. Thank you for an awesome product.

There is nothing bad that I can think of about your products or service. I have never ordered anything that showed up at my door after 2 days! The amazing thing about this is that every time I order, it still shows up 2 day later. Amazing!Thanks again. Gene B.

Hi Bill
I’m so glad I found your site/ and products. I was struggling to get effect my customers wanted, with your product it only took 3 trial pcs and we got it done I wish I could upload the photo of the final product. We are dealing with quite large Architectural steel panels so we clean the scale with a dustless sand blaster (developed by us) apply 1 coat of your product, rinse, re apply rinse again, then dry it, wipe it with a clean rag, and we buff it with blue gel, it looks like a million dollar. You got a customer for life thank you sir
Thanks for the comments. Tell me more about the Dustless Sand-Blaster! Best, Bill
Bill, This sure is a great site. I would love to come to your “hands on” training. Could you please let me know when they will be? Our could you give me your address? So excited you are in St. George.
Thanks, Ken…I’ve sent you an email. Bill
We are going to be in Tucson for the winter and want to know if there are any workshops there.
I currently don’t have any workshops scheduled in Arizona, although I do
love southern AZ. You’re welcome to visit my shop in St. George, UT
for some “hands-on” training. Thanks!

Do you have to put a protective coating on the steel after the f/x if it is a yard display?
Yes, any steel that has been patinated will rust if not clear-coated. :o)
How long will the color last outside with the clear coat
With the proper UV inhibiting clear-coat, the color/s will remain vibrant for 15+ years.
Even longer if the piece is displayed out of direct sunlight. A high-quality automotive
2-part clear is the best. I prefer PPG’s DELTRON DC3000 for all of my metal work.
Bill, what is your email address?
What do you pre soak the steel in to remove the dross, just water?
My email is: bill@steelf-x.com
The pre-soak is water & 1 other ingredient that you
can buy locally.
The formula & instructions are in my eBook.

Bill,
