I purchased the metallic oil rub bronze but it is too flat in colour. I just read you also used the Rub n Buff spanish copper. So, did you spray painted the lamps first and then waited for them dry and rubbed the other product over to achieve the two colours as it shows on the lamps? Please reply, I will appreciate it.

It only takes a light touch if you just want the edges highlighted. Hope this answers your question. :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17127062928579434477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9054154658010381697.post-49936437536616881002014-10-26T16:39:55.043-04:002014-10-26T16:39:55.043-04:00I inherited two of my granny's table lamps.

If you don't have one of those, I imagine Michaels or AC Moore or some like craft shop would have it. At Hobby Lobby, it's in the acryllic craft paint aisle. It comes in a small tube on a cardboard-backed pack.
