Anyone used this before, weird colour out the bottle, mine is almost 'bright green', no matter how much i shake the bottle it comes out like some revolting medicine colour, thought it may evaporate and leave a dust residue behind, no it turns what ever it touches green;

To be fair - looking at the bottle it does seem to leave a green tinge, bizzare

I've got a few washes from John but not had time to try them yet and I think one is a dust wash as above
I'll let you know when I get to offering up to my Matilda

Regards

Robert

This is the best selling wash I have out of this range, I've never noticed that it looks bright green, I have more stock coming in tomorrow I will have a look at it.

This is a good one I've heard nothing but good about it , I use the AK interactive version but thinking of swapping over as that takes ages to dry

I use this very often. It works very well. Here it is used on 1/72 Mosquito Wheels.



Note the detail on the tyres.

I also use it exclusively on all my armour tracks as well. You can also watch how Andy from Andy Hobby headquarters uses it on almost all his recent builds on youtube.
