Fireplace & divider
"The Castle Creek fireplace used a 1/8" thick steel plate called laser plate. One could also start with a 'pickled and oiled' plate. A material that is without mill scale. The surface was orbital sanded thru to a 240 grit finish. We used the Birchwood Casey product M20 deluted 50% with distilled water. This patina is a solution that includes selenious and phosphoric acids. The diluted patina was sprayed on with misting bottle and worked in with fine Scotchbrite pads and kept wet with the patina until the desired color was reached. It was then immediately flooded with water and force dried with compressed air and towels. Your metal worker can decide what lacquer to best use, there are many that would work I believe. http://birchwoodtechnologies.com/antiquing/options.html ANTIQUE BLACK® M20 IMMERSION"

1/8" hot rolled steel. "Deft [satin] is the Brand. We spray it on using a HVLP cup gun. It also comes in spray cans and is available at larger hardware stores. "Clear wood finish Satin spray" Is your fireplace interior or exterior? Is it Hot rolled? If it is hot rolled you should be fine for a while. The mill scale will protect it from rusting....For interior use Deft will last indefinitely."
