Thanks Guys.  I initially did the same thing as John (Googled "Painting
Bakelite") and got lots of hits=2C but none I wanted to follow up with.=20
I do have a compressor=2C but used spray cans to date.  Using a spray gun (=
or even a DIY aresol can) would allow me to mix it thinner=2C so that could=
 be an option.  Testors is a really interesting idea (thanks Chad)=2C but I=
 wonder how
well it would weather?  Models are certainly not intended for outdoor
use.  Still=2C I just emailed Testors to see what they say and will
report back if it looks like a viable option.

That leaves the
Healey option=2C which I think might be the winner.  It certainly sounds li=
ke the easiest choice=2C and I don't think it would preclude spraying later=
 if I wasn't happy with the results.  Roland=2C can you tell
me a little more about this?  I assume you use liquid shoe polish?=20
Right?  When people use India ink=2C how is it applied?  Brush?  Any
other tips you can provide?  Thanks.
