Steve, Kurt, Larry thanks for the kind words. I do enjoy working on small sections very much while I still have a full functioning layout. But the weather is improving, summer gets closer and I should plan to spend more of my time in the sun.
An update how the rust developed during the last 48 hours. The rust is not bad but it is not perfect fine for 1:87 scale. I would be better for O scale and up. I did try it some years ago on metal roofs of boxcars for rusty patches but it looked not like rust to scale. However, it is ok for a junk corner.
