CCGWR Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Hi Everyone, I have had some challenges with some locos after weathering where the paint finish has gone all wavy after airbrushing with enamels. I am assuming it is just excess motor lubrication seeping onto the body and causing it to thin and go all wavy. Would the best solution be to wash the bodies in warm soapy water prior to weathering to get rid of the oil? The loco turned out okay thanks to some black paint but isn't perfect. I am leaving it for now because from normal viewing distance isn't noticeable as you can see from the 2nd photo. Just wanting to avoid this problem in future.
