That would be airbrush thinner on a rag. You just rub it on.........I mean off. You can track my whole project here.

I would like a total of four done. I have three engines now. All will need to be stripped. Would you be able to do the lettering also.

The lettering would need custom decals, which would cost somewhere around $10 I think. What color would I need to use??

black lettering. Or would green lettering that matches the paint look better.

The letters are your choice. Is the BNSf executive scheme close enough??

Is the white actually white or is it more a cream color. PM me we can talk there and not run up the posts here.
