In the words of the late, great Tina Turner - Simply the best!
Sorry to be a pest. A couple of questions please Mike.
Do you have to seal/fix the Flory wash before the next step?
The VMS pigment + water mix. Is that very fragile after it's dry being that you've used only water? When applying the pigments does it affect the Flory wash?
Thanks
No problem Jim.
I applied the wash over a matt finish, this was left for a couple of hours and then the most of it was taken off with a soft brush and clean water. It was then left to dry overnight. This as you can see when comparing the before and after pics it really toned down that 'Dinky Toy' green...
The pigment/water mix was then applied over the top, and I then applied it on an area at a time so that I could work the mix into the areas i.e corners and leave the rest clear or just slightly dusty. On verticle surfaces I appled the mix and let it dry for about ten minutes and then with a 'fan' brush dipped in clean water and tapped on a piece of kitchen towel to remove the excess water, gently stroked down from top to bottom and repeated that as many times as required.
The mix then dries 'hard' and can be handled if required.
What I will do this weekend is do a tutorial on an old kit lower hull to show the process/stages, and post it on here Monday, as trying to describe something can be taken as different by another, as we all know.
