Good evening,
30 years ago I used the Floquil paints for weathering my structures but it appears they are no longer in business. I use mostly the roof brown, black and grey. Paints were used as a stain and not painted - I like my buildings to look at leats100 years old - and am hoping to get a few opinions as what may work for me.
I still have about 30 bottles, mostly unopened, of various colors but some have dried out over the years but I think that lacquer thinner may make them workable. I was going to toss 'em but my wife said try to sell them on Ebay.
Up north we had a hardware store called Grossmans (now out of business) and they had a stain used for weathering barnwood. Worked perfect for weathering for me.
Any thoughts?
