Hi Neill yes what you are reffering to is called Johnsons klear, or the new formula which is called pledge klear i think, these can be bought at super markets and are self leveling floor polishes which can either be applied by airbrush or a brush i prefer using a brush and i personally apply 2 coats on aircraft then apply the decals, followed by another 2 coats it is then weathered and a coat of matt varnish is used to seal everything.

Hi and thanks. Yet another reason to visit Tescos for anything other than drink for New Years Eve. Have you ever heard of the Flair piant I mentioned in my last post? I got it out of my local model shop and although its not varnish (I don't think it is anyway as it claims its enamel based) I think I can use it anyway. Do you thin the matt varnish down at all?Originally posted by \Comment

Hi Neill because i use Vallajo matt varnish it is water based... so yes i will add a little water to the varnish, mix it together and the varnish goes a long way. I have to say i've never heard of the stuff you mentioned at all... sorry mate not mush help there.

I bought some pastels from the works, earth like colours, dark for fresh and light for dry clay dirt. This is what I want to do with them on this youtube video...

If this works then happy days! Save a fortune from buying Mig Pigments. He mentions rubbing alcohol, anything you guys would recommend? Will this permanently fix the ground up pastel or will it flake off in time?Comment
