Members plinkercases Posted September 4, 2018 Members Report Posted September 4, 2018 Any experience out there using M&G as a resist (perhaps at 100% strength versus 50/50 for a finish)?

Albob Posted September 4, 2018 Report Posted September 4, 2018 I use it at a 50/50 ratio with water,it does pretty good. Cheap enough to buy a jug and try it out Quote When the poop hits the fan, we's all eleven bravos
Members plinkercases Posted September 4, 2018 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2018 Albob ksut soni am.clear you use it 50/50 as a dye resist? This is what i am curious about and how well it works esxpecially when applying dark dyes over it. I already use it 50/50 as a top finish and am pleased with it.

I use it as a antique resist and as a finish on about everything else. When using it for the antique I let it dry a while then ad a second coat and then let it dry good hour before applying the antique. I can't speak to using it as a dye resist though. Let us know if you try it out. Quote When the poop hits the fan, we's all eleven bravos
Members plinkercases Posted September 4, 2018 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2018 OK thanks and I will do some experiments this weekend hopefully with dye and stain.
