Yes I did on my Carf Mig 15

Its easy and works for me!, just follow the directions and you'll be amazed about the effect [8D]
Turpentine is just used to thin the paint so you can apply it easier,

Is weathering done using oil based paints?? What about fuel proofing weathered surfaces?? More details on this and exact color match to use would be much appreciated.

Thanks again,

Is there any special precaution to take into consideration while applying weathering? or is it a straight forward operation?

If you could just drop a few words wplaining your procedure, would be great.
