Aggro, I've been using these powders for a few years and they are great. Also very easy to use. I have various paper box lids (11" x 17") that I use as containers to apply the various colors. One box per color. This way when the color comes off the model, I can catch it in the box lid and re-use it. When I use lots of colors, I save the mixed left over that comes of the models during application (I use only the browns, rust, blacks and grey) and use it as an all purpose dirt wash for rolling stock. One cool trick that I use on reefers is to re-paint the roof black with polly scale and then after it is dry hit it real heavy with the black powder. It gives it a nice chalking paint kind of look. This also works with other colors as long as the powder comes close to matching the base color. These powders also work well on stock cars to give that dusty look... Guy
