I definitely didn't see any of that the first time around! Wow, this really
gives me something to work with, thank you! I'll try a couple spare pieces of
wood for practice. Thanks, Rich! And thank you for sending it again!

I use the Testors gold model paint to touch up lines on Edison Cylinders and
have used it in combination with water colors and a final coat of shellac to
restore damaged Edison banners.

Testors Airplane Dope is a liquid and not airplane glue. It is basically
a lacquer and it dries rock hard and also shrinks so no brush marks and
ripples. Testors also supplies a thinner for it.

What would you use to thin airplane glue? Any normal paint thinner?

No, that is
No, that is cabinet finish. Gold plating was usually coated with thinned
cellulose lacquer. Fingernail polish also contains oil so it is a bit
soft and true cellulose lacquer is rather tough to come by bet bet is
Testors thinned clear airplane dope from you local hobby shop.

Reading this I can see that you are talking about wood finishes.

That is why I resent the info. E-mail is an unreliable communications
medium at best.
Generally speaking the base coats are highly thinned filtered buglac
which is the basic shellac that once dissolved has to set for 2-3 days
for the wax and bug parts to settle out. This has a rich red-amber
I'm sure you may have, but I never saw it. Either way I appreciate the info.

That's a great idea, thank you! If I can get these gold parts looking newish,
that's what I'll do. :-)
