Hi Guys
Liked the video. In regards to the windscreen washer fluid what percentage is the methyl hydroxide ( methanol) in the solution. In Australia they tend to use a range of chemicals I finally found a methonal based product. Thanks Graeme

Graeme,
Graeme,
To be honest with you, I have never paid attention to the formulation.
What I do know is the summer fluid works better then the winter fluid. If I remeber correctly the summer fluid has a touch of amonia mixed in. The winter fluid has a form antifreeze (methanol) this is not recommended for modeling use.
I have seen some of the military guys use Standard/Original Windex to thin Tamyia paints and it should work for this purpose as well.
I hope this helps.
Ralph

Art Pens
Speaking of colored Sharpies.
As you mention, go to an art store. Prism and Stadler both make an extensive range of artist pens. You want the .3mm or finer.
