    It's wood stain repackaged, so that might help you in figuring out the consistency. (OK, so I don't know if it is 100% wood stain, but it's awfully close... and 3 times more expensive...)

    I use it and love it. It did wonders for some old models I built 15 years ago. Dipped them and the livened up a lot.

    Just paint it on. Much less mess, much less waste, much more control. You can make it as thick or as thin as you like. Simples....

    It looks like there were a lot of air bubbles right after you dipped and spun, but it seems as if they went away when it dried. Did you do something to remove those, or did they just sort themselves out through the drying process?

    Interesting stuff. I saw Army Painter for sale locally just recently, and I was tempted to pick it up, but I've never used it before.

    just buy the paint pot version and paint it on.

    i have the pot version and it works like a charm with anti shine matte after.... i dont use it like AP tell you to though, i use it like a wash rather than a one coat wonder... i go back over and re-highlight just like normal.

    but great stuff for quick hoards

    The stuff AP sells in a paint pot is really just a wash. One of the draws of using original Quick Shade is that it is also a varnish. I used it on 50 termagants. I want a really tough varnish on those because they get knocked around a lot. Shade and seal in one step. I do hit the models with a matte sealer after.
