The rust finish on the hopper is excellent. A great, easy to understand video.
love those videos sch simple explanation easy to follow, and achieving great effect. great job.
Thanks for the advice. I have used this tip lodes of times
Love your work!
Thank you for sharing!
You can, however you will tend to cover your whole model with the hair spray, using Decalfix allows you to apply to selected areas.
Yes, they will be next in our 'Weathering' series. We may do a few ‘How To’ videos first though.
They look really good. Might have to get some of them.
Excellent video. I didn't know you could use decal fix inplace of hairspray.
Summary, Pt 1:
1. 50/50 mix of Enamel Thinners and Matt Cote.
2. Dab rust powders on the model with a large brush.
3. When dry, paint with acrylics thinned with Decal Fix.
4. Let dry, then paint with tap water. Allow this to soak in to the model.
5. The paint can now be scratched and chipped away.
6. Use a paint brush with Enamel Thinners to allow the rust to seep through.
7. More thinners, greater the rust showing through.
8. When happy with the effect, dilute again with tap water.
Excellent job pall.......very good!!!!

model making, the zen way :) ty a lot mate
Fabulous video
Hi when u have finished putting the powder on would u put a Matt clear all over to hold it in place thank you love the videos very helpful
Thanks! I was confused by your use of enamel thinners. Its a super technique. Just ordered some.
Enamel Thinners breaks down the Acrylic paint, giving you the weathered/worn look.
I hear you can also use hairspray in place of the decal fix to create a layer that will release easily when lightly scrubbed with a wet brush.
Interesting variation to the hairspray-chipping technique and the commercially available and airbrushed sprayed, Chipping Medium. Instead of using a soluble layer of hairspray/chipping medium, the soluble component is mixed into the weathering paint itself and paint brush applied, in the form of water-soluble Humbrol DecalFix added to water-based acrylic paint, which is then chipped by tap water. Although no ratio is given, the proportions are such that the result in coverage would be via two layers of paint - but at the same time not be overly thick as to resist the chipping process. I would definitely experiment at this step using an eye dropper, to tract the ideal ratio, while practicing first on a disposable test piece. In this Humbrol weathering/rust technique, a further step is seen by the application of a solvent-based thinner, which reactivates the rust layer and causes a very realistic "bleeding" through the chipped/weathered acrylic layer. Again, a very interesting variation to the hairspray technique, and one that should be suitable for a winter camo application on an armored vehicle.
Yes, we will have videos when the range is released.
Very helpful
I believe we're feeling left out on this side of the pond! What a brilliant weathering method!! I've seen Humbrol products, in very short supply in the US. Because of it's limited appeal (and marketing!), I've never considered using Humbrol - until now!
That rust breaking through paint chip procedure just staggered me. As far as "Decal Fixing Solution", there's got to be a decal setting solution sold here, that would give the desired result.
Ignore my comment, ice watched another video and it has answered my question!
When the tanker is done do you have to spray anything on to stop the powder coming off if you touch the tanker ?.
Awesome!
Is there any difference between Matt Cote and Matr varnish?
Can Humbrol Satin Cote b used to dull down paintwork? EG on a new Oxford Diecast vehicle?
i take it the method used to make the Murco tanker look like the paint has faded could also be used to represent the dust on China clay wagons?
How do you fix the paint on the model and secure it from occasional drops of water? Varnishing?
Great video what is the name of the background music? I like it
instead of Humbrol acrylics, i've found some gloody art acrylic, since i'm doing art GCSE. anyway, can I use ththat instad, with some thinner for repainting?
Indeed it could. :)
Once you're happy with the finish, what do you do to seal the mixture? I know the decal fix is dry to touch, but is there a way to protect it from moisture or an erroneous spillage? Is there a Matt varnish spray or have I made that up?
The paint used in this video is Humbrol Acrylic.
So on the Murco tanker after you have applied the Varnish, should you let it dry before you put the weathering powders on?
Hi can anyone help.
Why cant I mix the matt cote with enamel thinner .When I apply it to the hopper wagon like in this video at the beginning. Mine beads like a waterproofing .I then can't apply a good coat to the hopper wagon to work the weathering powders In.
Can you use acrylic paint instead of enamel?
What technique is best for varnishing locos?
could i ask, are you scale model medic by any chance?
Yes, let the Varnish dry before you add the Weathering Powder.
I can not get Decalfix to mix with the paint like is shown here. I'm using humbrol enamel paint. It just blobs and does not mix.
Also you posted earlier to let the varnish coat dry before the the powder. Yet you state a few times in the tutorial that the varnish is wet.
OK I'm guessing i need to try it with acrylics..
can the rust and grime weathering powders used in this video also be fixed down with Decalfix?
Duffield Junction I'd suggest not, as the grey acrylic is, and that needs reactivating when the 'rust' does not.
Hi, I am using the sand weather effect. And first of all, the color is reaaaaaally, but reaaaaally shinny. I mean, it`s almost fluorescent sand!
Then I`d like take it out as you do on this video with a abrush and tap water but it doesn`t get out. It impossible to get rid of it. Am I doing sonething wrong?
Thanks
I mean, the Sand Powder, sorry
Also my brushes ended up ruined it would be nice to be told how to clean them.

Bitterly disappointed i spent good money on a loads of weathering stuff and practised on 2 trucks which ended up a mess nothing like the video .I ended up exposing the original brown colour of the truck after painting the light grey on just dont get it.
Have since re done same truck and another looks a bit better but cannot achieve the results as on the video so no its not simple it is however a lot of hassle. The tanker i used did not look anywhere as good as the video. The smoke powder which appeared black on the video is actually grey so did not look like oil stain.
this is general guide, but you still have to experiment yourself with colors and layers...
Funny how we spend time and money making a nicely painted wagon look grotty. In real life we do the opposite.
