I have made this several times. What I found was that the longer the mixture sits, the less it turns the wood to this beautiful rusty weathered color. If you want rust, use it as soon as you can after letting sit a day or week or so. This is when it is most effective. If I recall, and it’s been a few years, it just sort of weathered the wood after sitting too long but no really enough to call it weathered. The actual rust color looks like rust that has formed on its own.

I found it to be an awesome process and am going to do it. A while ago I had heard of this homemade stain and forgot about it. I am so glad you brought it back to my attention. Great idea!
