Hi Paul,

In the TMMI #86 with Marcus' FAMO w/trailer, Marcus misted the model with
XF-57:20% + Thinner:80% to add a layer of 'dust'

I tried this with my FAMO
(http://www.interlog.com/~khartlen/kits/tamiya/35239/pics.htm) but keep it
to the lower portion of the chassis and the engine. You have to build up the
'dust' slowly letting each coat to dry since the cool changes as the very
thin Buff dries. I chickened out and didn't go as far as Robert did with his
Sd.Kfz.252.

Ken
