japanning question
John Truxell-Svenson (jvs)
>Has anyone here tried the Liberty on the Hudson "Old Japanners' Pontypool" and could compare it to the A&R recipe? I have a few planes that could use a new finish after cleanup, including one that has the most amazing japanning & rust, followed by black, then red, then black again paint job, and would like to try this.
$26/quart is more than I used to pay for a decent grade of gin way back when, but is there any advantage other than convenience to it over asphaltum/linseed/turps?
