Thank you very much for that information. I haven't tried before mixing in my own medium. But if the mixing you said (1/3 of stand oil, turp and damar) works for you then defenitely it'll work for me.

You said that it's nice to use flake white also but isn't it dangerous because of its lead consistency? Anyway, you said that i can use liquin or any alkyd medium and i just remember that i got several alkyd oil i my bag that i never use anymore. Maybe i can substitute it from the flake white.

Thanks again for that helpful info. i'll try doing that as soon as possible and fix everything I done wrong.

Xander.
