Making weathering permanent

I would suggest using powders made specifically for weathering like those made by Bragdon Enterprises. I have not gotten to weathering my stuff yet but I read about this product in Model Railroader. In one case it mentions that a little goes a long way and compressed air in a can was used to blow off excess before fixing it with a matte finish with good results. My wife who is a crafter has also used a cheap hair spray to fix chalks. She said to use one like Aqua-Net which she says dries quickly and does not mess up the chalks. You may want to experiment with this method before going any further with your good stuff. Good luck in any case. Bob
