Not tacky within in 20 minutes, no horrible smell, need to ventilate, or poisonous cleanup.<br /><br />At Lowes I just buy the can of clear tint and pick the color for the worker to dye it. For browns I've used American Walnut and for blacker models Onyx. <br /><br />I imagine that's practically what Army Painter system is. And Minwax is only $9 for a big can compared to 2-3X as much for a little guy.Baconfathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12152422678887860988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561181956134839079.post-17779747676311622352010-12-30T21:02:14.214-08:002010-12-30T21:02:14.214-08:00Thanks again, Gents.

I actually had this for wood staining and was sitting in my garage for several years. Did I use the wrong type?

To be honest, most historians struggle with telling us what the most famous troops in the ancient and medieval times looked like (in terms of armour, weaponry etc.) so my view would be as long as your troops look good and are identifiable as the units they represent, then you're on to a winner.Broedershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18218127480258279732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1561181956134839079.post-34263317492254366392010-12-27T00:44:17.972-08:002010-12-27T00:44:17.972-08:00Thanks!
