Andre, Doesn't Micro Mark carry Floquil?
The thing I don't care for in this new formula, colors like reefer orange is more like reefer peach....the brighter old colors have been tamed down somewhat, well ok alot.. gale ----- Original Message ----- From: Andre Ming To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2008 6:48 PM Subject: Re: {S-Scale List} Speaking Of Paints... Okay, I've found that Floquil is still available, but looks like a much reduced selection. That question is answered. John said: > I don't know for sure, but I don't think chipboard and rain go well > together. I know that particle board (sawdust/glue) is not water resistant. Gets wet: Crumbles. Chip board is the stuff that I think is called "Luan". It's made of wood shavings and waterproof glue. BUT, it has a rough surface. I've seen Luan used unpainted for utility buildings. > I would suggest plywood, primed and painted, might be better. And I may have to do something like that. Downside is that painted plywood in an outdoor setting is the pits. If the paint gets the least bit aged, and water gets to the wood: Ripples and warping. Thanks for the input John.
