HI first time to get on the forum. I hit on this topic; as I am in the process of weathering about 80 freight cars for my own layout. Am having a ball doing it and with good results. Using soft pastels and doing it right over wet dullcote. Tried covering with the dullcote but it took too much of the colors away. Hit on the process of using a dry brush and streaking right into the wet dullcote. Color stands out and with several passes really looks blurred and natural. Use several different colors and differant brush for each color to simulate many types of weathering. When it is all dry there seems to be no change in the appearance of the dullcote. May go back at some later time and add light dusting with airbrush. Can do a car in about 10 minutes. So my answer is probaply not willing to buy ones already weathered.
