You can't do this with a rattle can!

When it comes to light weathering only a airbrush will do the job correctly.
SP 3937 gets ready to leave the Tucson yards with a manifest freight.

I use a rattle can to paint my locos as well as many of my freight cars.

I don't own an airbrush and don't see the need for one.  All my models are weathered using paint brushes, make-up brushes, make-up sponges and even a shaving brush.

Would like to see pictures of your work Rog,everything i ever painted with a rattle can ran,dripped or just looked just not quite right.....cept for dullcote,pretty hard to screw that up.
