Disclaimers

  • The Corrod System has been developed with the intention of creating an authentic rust effect. It is important to understand that due to the natural reactions caused by this product, the final appearance of the surface is highly unpredictable.
  • Although the activators of the Corrod System are designed with a specific type of reaction in mind, they can on occasion, react in a unique way that may not produce the expected effect.
  • Corrod is most suitable for those willing to experiment, with a desire to obtain a totally unique feature that cannot be replicated. For applicators, we also recommend to measure the expectations of clients. Although a naturally rusted surface will be produced upon application of the product, the client cannot have much input into the final look due to the lack of control of the overall reaction.
