Don't use table salt for this technique. I did it for my KV-1 and it turned out to be a mess. The salt almost melted leavingthis white film that will not come off the model. I tried stripping and repainting...nothing, the spots show through.

I had the same experience as Jeff using table salt on my M577. It turned out bad and can't be repaired.

what salt would you guys say is wise to use? SS-74 good ole davidus said pretzl salt was one to use.. but would sea salt or rock salt work as well ?

IIRC, FSM used sea salt on thier model.

I looked at your link tony and i am surprised at the results do you care to tell me the process you have used to get that wonderfull result cheers!
