SMurF Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 If you peel the top white layer off gently then carefully damp lte next layer it comes away without leaving those tufty bits Fair play for having a go It does look pretty good Spray cartons are a good source for it as they are a little bit stronger than the avrage box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akey Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 My local office supplies, stocks this in 70cm x 50cm rolls Come in a range of colours, is just about right for tin 1/32 scale, but the profile would be a tad small for asbestos roofing About ?1.80 a roll...........pix of my tractor shed done in this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 i think those tufty bits add to the effect makes it look weatherd & aged what you could do is paint it in your desired main colour say grey. then dry brush on a green moss golour so it highlights the tufts as moss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
