Just tried this last night on a couple Panthers. For some reason it left behind some milky splotches. Has anyone had this happen to them? |

Not with the FOW paint, but that's a sign of inadequately mixed paints. Those milky patches are "pools" of the matting agent (often chalk dust). Get some small glass beads to use as shakers. |

I've used bb's in Vallejo paints. So any ideas on how to get rid of the chalky spots? I don't want to mess up my camo! |

Careful with what you use as agitators in paint. You don't want something in there that will corrode and potentially ruin your paint. Leftover sprue from trimming up pewter minis is good, hematite beads are good anything brass or copper can be bad. |

I get that sometimes when I thin washes with paint water used enough to go grey. |
