Re Bronzing PowderThanks, Jon. I wonder how much more old stuff I have around. I never did complete a clean-up of my shop. Must have stuff from about 25 years ago still around. You know, put in a safe place, because I might need it some day. I better hurry and get myself organised, as there may not be as many of those, 'some days', left, as I think. LOL John M.

Mix the powder with a little thinner first and than add it to the lacquer. As far as the ratio goes, you need enough so that the material offers a solid color and no too translucent but not so many particles in suspension that it clogs the nozzle. Don't forget to filter it, don't mix it in the cup. Once you get good coverage, add more clear to the gun and add some dimension. Finish off with clear but do not sand or touch the final gold before clear topcoat. -- Regards, Jon Page -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
