They key is to move into them gradually... even to the point where you only do part of them with the oils, let them dry, and do the rest with your regular paints. <br /><br />That's what I did to start with, and it worked quite wellwappellioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11545341272914600283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349727365634393854.post-4862701009429918982018-03-19T14:13:06.883-05:002018-03-19T14:13:06.883-05:00Excellent paintjob.
