Being a pretty regular viewer of your blog,...Tony,<br /><br />Being a pretty regular viewer of your blog, I really enjoy your comments and have incorporated several of your ideas. I have tried to use your weathering process with some success. My frustration with the end result (it's me not your methods, Tony) led me to what I now use almost universally on flat sided rolling stock (Box cars, hoppers, reefers and some covered hoppers). Basically the car is dusted with pan pastels then misted with heavy water and finally that sludge is rubbed down with a wedge shaped cosmetics sponge. This results in a very uniform coating that, when dry, replicates what happens when rolling stock is in rain, snow sleet etc. The coating is totally impervious and flat. The first coat is Burnt Umber. Be glad to send a photo. <br /><br />Keep up the great blog. <br /><br />Roger Sekera<br />Potomac, MD Roger Sekerahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16530198963792559336noreply@blogger.com
