Ever have the moment when you realize that your project has totally gotten away from you? Here's a prime example!
I've read that other folks have mixed some flat black acrylic paint with glass cleaner, and used a small spray bottle to help mist the paint for some weathering on the flight suit. I started low, and got some decent results. Then I over adjusted the spray nozzle and broke it and sprayed some of the thighs of the suit. Key mistake here I think was getting impatient and not testing it before spraying again. Needless to say it went poorly, and I have some really huge dots that no amount of attempting to spread around would cause to dissipate.
I've washed the flight suit in hot water, wife tried soaking it in oxyclean for two days, but we've still got some fairly dark spots. I can attempt to darken/weather around them, but does anyone have good advice on how to fix this massive SNAFU?
