I know that mineral oil and plastic don’t mix - something I found out in my Triang days . Is diesel safe in plastic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-UnitMad Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 On 27/09/2023 at 14:29, PjKing1 said: Thanks very much, I’ve painted the bogies with acrylic matt black then added various weathering powders, then the oil effect was added using a method I’ve not tried before on a loco. This is then sealed with matt varnish then some areas have more paint added along with more powders all over and into the oily areas then once again sealed with the matt varnish. Oil affect is actually diesel oil mixed with black powder. Thanks again Paul That must smell a bit??!! At least it'd be an authentic smell...!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
