Hi all,

long story short i have something i need to look rusty, its all painted up now and looks spot on except its got a bit to much of a gloss shine on it where as it should be completely matt finish, anyone know any method to resolve this, will need to be soorted today hopefully so anything from b&q/focus would be v.good.

is enamel paint btw.

Matt enamel varnish?
For a small area a model shop, for larger areas have a look in B&Q.

matt spray varnish. Should be available from B&Q. Also Games Workshop, but you run the risk of being heckled into a game of Warhammer 40000K if you go in there.
