Hi Jon, very good tip on using the Vallejo's airbrush thinner to remove acrylic paints. I will use that technique, thank you very much.

[@JonBius]

You are so welcome. I'm glad it was helpful! Do take caution - the lightest whisper should be on the brush. If after a few tries, and it doesn't come up, it may have cured beyond that trick working. Happy day to you friend!

[@jhoodfysh]

Well done Jon, it is good to have options. Thank you.

[@JonBius]

Took a year for me to reply... 🤦‍♂️🤪 Thanks John!

A few drops of XF-55 and 19. Few as in 2-3 or 5-10? 😊

[@JonBius]

I'll have to give a politician's answer - it depends. 😊 I've never had a precise measure, because it's a very subjective color. The best I can describe it is a slightly warmish off-white that looks white until you put white over it. So the amount of those other two colors depends on how much white you start with. I experimented by putting some white on plasticard, and then as I added the -55 and -19 to a nearly full bottle of -2, I dabbed some right at the edge of the white, and proceeded from there. My initial drops of the -55 and -19 were in the 5 drop range each. (It's been a lot of years.) And then I added from there until I got the color I was looking for. But the key is not the ratio, but rather how it looks. And that is very subjective of course. I'd recommend starting small, and then adding color until it gets to TLAR Standard. "That Looks About Right". 😉 That pretty much describes half of my entire philosophy of modeling. To state it fully, "Have fun getting it too look about right." LOL Thanks for watching and commenting!

I think the word you were looking for was I'm not a "fizzy-cyst"...

[@JonBius]

Hahahaha! That's the one! :)
