Hanging out

• Reinforcing steel, available from Mitre10 (ask them to cut the size down for you).
• Resene GP Metal Primer
• Resene Black in flat,
• Paint brush
• 3 small nails.

Instructions

1. This reinforcing steel usually comes a bit rusty, so brush it off before priming with Resene General Purpose Metal Primer.

2. Once the primer is dry, brush on a coat of Resene SpaceCote Flat in Resene Black for a flat powder­coated look, or a Resene Lustacryl for a more wipe-able surface.

3. Hang it up using three small nails; two at either end and one in the middle. And voila! An industrial moodboard to clip up ideas for your next DIY project!
