Recently I came into possession of two very interesting things: one is Kosutte-Ginsan manufactured by Wave, and the other is a Dark Steel pigment produced by AK-Interactive.
Both are in the form of pigment / powder which is rubbed into the surface, and both are designed to mimic the steel surface.
In the case of Wave's product, the surface must be painted a glossy black paint first, then rub with a cotton swab.
On the left surface was prepared with gloss black paint on the right unprepared surface.
While pigment form AK-Interactive looks better on matt surface.

As you can see both the specifics give very interesting results. AK-Interactive pigment is better suited for imitating heavy cast steel and by Wave for turned or rolled lighter elements.
Both products are useful in the modeling workshop, so I recommend them highly to all who sometimes have the need to reproduce steel effect.
