Members ffjdh Posted Sunday at 05:24 PM Members Report Posted Sunday at 05:24 PM (edited) I had a jar of resolene that I had used to finish many black projects. I used it on a white project and it looked like some of the black from my previous projects had pulled up and muddied the resolene slightly. It gave my white project with a minor black antiqued look. Has anybody ever added a small amount of paint to resolene to achieve this look? Edited Sunday at 05:27 PM by ffjdh Quote
Members Dwight Posted Sunday at 06:40 PM Members Report Posted Sunday at 06:40 PM No I didn't . . . but I learned early on that I needed two containers of Resolene. One for browns and one for the black. The brush I used on the black would pick up some of the loose pigment and drop it off in the resolene jar. Not really a super big deal . . . but I didn't need any extra color in my brown products. May God bless, Dwight Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted yesterday at 04:22 AM Contributing Member Report Posted yesterday at 04:22 AM I've not tried it for 'antiquing' but I keep several bottles of thinned tinted resolene After putting resolene on some items I noticed there was some dye colour carried over so I made up bottles of thinned resolene with some dye added. I have; red, green, blue, purple, tan, medium brown, as well as Fiebings own black resolene Quote
Members BlackDragon Posted 17 hours ago Members Report Posted 17 hours ago Why not just pour some resolene in a separate container instead of dipping out of the bottle, this way you don't contaminate your unused resolene? Quote
