                        Swanny,

                        I like your "fume can"! I will be making myself one of these.

                        One question, does the Cool Whip container need to be the "Extra Creamy" type? Big Smile [:D] Just joking

                        For qustion 1, I just rub the end of the pastel on some coarse sandpaper or sanding stick over a piece of white paper until I've ground off enough to do the job. Question 2, refers to the viscosity not the color.

                        Hi gang. I've never attempted to weather any of the planes I've built, but I always wanted to. Nothing dramatic, just something to make the plane look something other than my usual "factory fresh"Wink [;)]. I bought a set of chalk pastels and I've been reading here that you "grind up a little pastel". What does that mean and how does one do it? I also intend to darken my panel lines, so I got some Grumbacher acrylic burnt umber paste which I intend to use for that. The instructions I read said to mix it with water to the consitency of coffee. I'm not sure whether that means the colour or the viscosity? Can somebody help with a little advice?
                        Thanks,
                        Rich Cool [8D]
