I have used Windsor and Newton "Yellow Ochre" as an anti-flux to avoid
solder tinning the decorative parts of a brass radiator.

Thanks TomP, I have asked at NAPA stores here, and got that raised 
eyebrow treatment like I was speaking Navajo or Swabili...

Good to know, msg marked FFR.

Most of my stuff is well worn in ( or out :), or too finely finished, so 
stiction is a much bigger problem than it is when things are properly 
scraped so an oil film has a place to hide.

Cheers, Gene Heskett

Thanks for that. I have some 'genuine' blue, but it is really messy. I also got 
a new Sandvick scraper last week, so I'm dying to try the Winsor & Newton. I 
use their Indian Ink on clock dials, sometimes. Pity our local art shop closed 
down. Amazon will have to do.

[Emc-users] bluing scraping

2019-04-27 Thread TJoseph Powderly

I'm in the boonies and need to scrape somethings flat.

Permatex prussian blue is hard to get.

But when googling,I always hit upon
Winsor Newton Winton Oil 1414538 Prussian Blue 37ml

It's an oil paint in a tube
(think Van Gogh's Starry Night )

I found some at a local book store that has art supplies,
It works great!

a box of black nitrile gloves,
and a 50x80cm slab of grey granite from a kitchen remodeler shop,
( a real deal, very flat and was a cut off , cost me 300Baht so about 10$ )
and I got real scraping!

I had tried several home brews that failed
(lip stick, and magic marker with vaseline goop)

This stuff is really easy to see.
the granite plate charges and stays for many imprints.

hope this helps someone
