Yes true and I do use it however not everyone wants to spend 25 on a jar of it. This way here gives great stains it’s inexpensive and those stains are super nice but yes a store bought product does in handy especially on small patches

I enjoy yr site and learning to create extras which i do dig. BUT what my downer is - printing out 3D items and going on from there. Yep i know you need to now create this item with paints/weathering/aging/stickers? Etc... but to me i loose it now as i find printing it out on 3D is like buying item from hobby shop & adding all the paints etc... i mentioned above. I dig watching creations hand made from foams..paper board...cards etc... to me thats hands on and creating, showing others and me watching plus learning as i am rather new to these fantastic creations that i have seen on line. Cheerz & best wishes. Den 😇🥰❤

Bud, I know this post is super late and you might not check these. But in case you do, would not be possible to put in the grout, and clean it off from the brick well enough that I could do my texture rolling afterwards? Great video, and I think I am going to try this technique in making some modular gaming walls.
@InsightfulImagery
@InsightfulImagery Ай бұрын
I wouldn’t try that because as you roll the foil or rock or whatever you use to texture will dislodge the grout the way around this would be to make your grout with paint instead of a rigid grout product paint in the color grout you want wipe excess off then texture sorry for the late response

Should I dilute the paints before hand? The same brand I have (mr.color) offers paint thinners. Would it make it easier to wipe off/have a better look?
@InsightfulImagery
@InsightfulImagery 5 ай бұрын
I’m not sure of that brand if they are water based then just thin them with more water but I wouldn’t thin them because you want the paint that is left behind to be undiluted for best color. This process is easy and no sense in making it complicated dab your paint on then with moist towel lightly wipe away excess easy as it gets. Hope this helps

The railroad sold off these in bunches. Some were scrapped but many went to equipment brokers. You can still buy some of these from equipment brokers who still have some of these. They banged along at the back of freight trains for decades. Some to this day are still being used for when trains have to make a long backwards move and the crew member has something safe and solid to stand on for an extended distance with the engineer behind him running blind and completely dependent on the employee watching out with a radio in his hand.
