I used to have to plan a winter's worth of painting and get everything primed in the Fall before the snow flew here in Canada. I'm glad I found out about gesso. I guess brush on varnish would help at the other end too.

Merry Christmas to you too!

Champagne corks, Consul. :-)

Hi James, that's tough. I really like using spray products for the think coats and speed. I must get a pot of gesso in, though, I do hear that beople get great results with it.

I've had good luck running a dehumidifier in my boiler room (where I use spray products in the winter) for a couple of days. Dries things out nicely. Since I've done that I haven't had any problems.

It was less cold today, and I had a day off work; I've primed and varnished the lot! :-)

Those Germans really are lovely, especially the shield designs. I only use brush-on varnish, so I am immune to changes in air quality!

Hi Andrew, I give them a couple of coats of gloss spray lacquer, and then paint on a coat or two of Dullcote over all the matt parts. Quite laborious!
