Wayne: what colours do you need? Some of mine are still liquid. But I just went through the collection and found a lot that need replacing.
As far as I know, I've got enough of the two shades of grey and the green to finish any remaining projects, but thanks for the offer, David.
Polly S has been replaced by Polly Scale, and, if I'm not mistaken, the original version of that has been vastly improved, too. I like it enough that I used it for the last two steamers which I recently painted, including this one:
It brushes nicely, and airbrushes as well as Floquil, even when thinned up to 90% with distilled water. The main drawback to it is that paint thinned for spraying don't seem to have the shelf life of thinned Floquil. Clean-up is supposedly with soap and water, but I've found lacquer thinner to be more effective - just as well, as I don't have water available in the garage.
