Rust Spray?

[Ol' Dirty]

It's very easy to find -often ineffective- rust prevention aerosol sprays, paints and primers... but what would I need to do to speed rusting up? :confused:

salt water :D

yeh as zider said saltwater will make it rust quicker as it is a better electrical conductor...

But I'm looking for something that speeds up the process, not water.:laugh:

a heads up if you are doing what i think you are... sparklers are an alternative to using magnesium strips (and much easier to get hold of) :cool:

And what would that be? I did some research online and if you're suggesting what I think you are, I will have to trash this thread unless you speak up.

what are you trying to make rust?

Since rusting is a chemical reaction, it is affected by temperature. So if the object is practical enough to take indoors it will rust quicker at the warmer room temperature than outdoors (assuming you live in a cool climate).

my assumption is that he is attemping some sort of welding process?

Its cheaper than buying a blowtorch (although also note alot less safe)

Ok thank you. I have to be a bit paranoid, nothing personal. :lol:

no its fine i totally understand, i probably could have phrased that better.
Still you have made me curious now into why the OP wants to create rust spray
