It is not sealed and will naturally age, darken, oxidize, and develop its own patina over time. Variations in mill scale, grain, tone, and surface markings are normal and part of the character of raw steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSignature Rusted Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur signature rusted finish is real rust—not paint, powder coating, faux rust, or a printed finish. We begin the natural rusting process by hand using a mixture of vinegar, peroxide, and salt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the steel arrives from the mill with its own unique grain, scale, and surface characteristics, no two pieces will ever rust exactly the same. Variations in color, pattern, depth, and texture are expected and make every piece one of a kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rusted finish is left unsealed and will continue to weather and develop naturally over time. Because it is real, unsealed rust, some color or residue may transfer to hands, clothing, walls, siding, or other surfaces, especially when new or exposed to moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlat Black\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur Flat Black finish is coated with Rust-Oleum flat black paint for a clean, classic look and added surface protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMade to Order \u0026amp; Returns\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is made to order based on the size and finish selected by the customer.
