I bought some rub'n'buff powder in the local hobby store. (It came as a surprise as I though it was a paste, a paint or something.) Anyway, who has any experience with it? How do you use it? (I"d like to simulate worn metal surfaces, chips, etc.) Maybe using something, like Future as carrier? How do you polish it up after? Before experimenting I though I ask first.

Andras - Just as the name implies - Rub it on, with a soft cloth (old T-Shirt) or cotton swab (Q-Tip) - polish it with a clean soft cloth. No need to thin, or use carrier.
