Thanks everyone for entering the contest!

Amaco Rub ‘n Buff, small package with a large impact.

One tube covers 20 sq. ft.

 

I started with this thrift store frame.

In it’s former life, I think it was a mirror.

It’s made of plastic, off white with dark gold highlights.

I dressed it up with flat black spray paint and used Rub ‘n Buff for highlights.

Silver Leaf Rub ‘n Buff.

I followed the directions on the package, you can rub it on with your finger or with a cloth. I feel more crafty when I get my hands dirty, or my fingers silver in this case. I used fingernail polish remover to remove from my fingers and then washed my hands with soap and water.

I think it turned out great and it looks much better all dressed up.

I’m using the frame to showoff a smaller picture.

I am very happy with Rub ‘n Buff. I am thinking about all the things that I can use it on!

If you’d like to try some, I’m giving away one tube of

Amaco Gold Leaf Rub ‘n Buff.

    9. Thanks so much for posting about this great product. We used this all the time at our antique shop years ago but had forgotten about it. It is a wonderful product and comes in all “metals”. Thanks for “reminding” me!

    11. I know I have Rub ‘n Buff in my stash, but I don’t think I ever used it. It turned out beautifully & I especially love how you hung a picture frame in it.
