I normally cut the thick skin off it then dilute it with white spirit to get it usable again. <br /><br />Its a pain to use, although I like the results.... Water based sounds like a much better option to me....Stig of the Dumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545185294092527157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7911815034278123491.post-6149513865950822092014-09-16T19:17:46.278+03:002014-09-16T19:17:46.278+03:00My can lived on the shelf for two years, and was f...My can lived on the shelf for two years, and was fine when I opened it up again.

Dilluted with Medium it just flows into recesses and main colour is just slightly darker then before. I usually paint on washed areas but it is not really necessary, especially for pure wargaming pieces.Inkubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09544298079350058692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7911815034278123491.post-34232171109901299462014-09-16T11:14:20.353+03:002014-09-16T11:14:20.353+03:00Making up the Klear/ink mix isn't that difficu...Making up the Klear/ink mix isn't that difficult if you have a working mix recipe from someone else. My main mix is 40 drops of MagiColor Earth Brown and 5 drops of MagiColor Quasar Black in 100ml of the Pledge multi surface wax. It lasts me ages.<br /><br />As an alternative, you could do the Pledge/Klear coat then ink over that.<br /><br />Another option I've seen people use is water based floor varnish/stain (AP stuff is just repackaged spirit based varnish/stain after all).TamsinPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11759947520907448060noreply@blogger.com
