What are these paints? (Soot, oil, dirt. etc.) Is it worth to buy them?
How different are they from the ordinary Gunze paints and what's the best methods to use them? (Soot looks like ordinary black paint in the jar.)

Wow. I didn't know about these... The ones I'm talking about are in the same paintjar as the other Gunze paints and are on the bottom of the paint rack.

So they're just another color I kind of hoped they're special (you know as the metallizers on the Testors rack). Do you know anything special about their application? (I just bought soot and painted on a bit of a plastic: looks shiny black, nothing more.)
