Galkyd Lite & OMS 50/50. . .
When I first switched from acrylics to oils, I read here on the forum to even out the sheen on a painting by applying a layer of 50/50 Galkyd Lite and OMS to the surface of the finished painting. It does unify the gloss and hold a very nice sheen through until it's time for final varnishing. . .
I'm noticing though that references to this here are all a few years old now and wondering. . .
Is this still considered a recommended practice? (Curious to know how many are still doing this currently . . .)
Anyone experience any problems (yellowing for instance) with the galkyd layer? (I have not at least so far as I can tell. . . but don't have anything older than a couple of years old to look at so . . .)
