Hi Wim, I tested to see if the weathering held up to kero. First photo shows what it looked like before the test. In the second photo I put some kero on a rag and rubbed it onto the airframe. The third photo is what the weathering looked like after the kero had been wiped off. There is no clear coat on top of the weathering.

the link doesnt seem to work anymore. Can anyone give me a brand name of the pigments and possibly where I can get them?

Try this link http://www.danielsmith.com

It looks like the link in the previous post was picking up the "I" from the next sentence.
