The only time I tried to weather some thing was the body of a lionel Milk car body that I was using for storage behind a grocery store, and I wanted to rust it out a little bit. Oh, that was a flop. I recently purchased a beep that was sold as Weathered and it didn’t look bad looking at the pictures front view, side view etc. when I got it I’m not too happy with the top view. So I don’t know if I should wet sand with light sand paper to remove the weathering on the roof; or use a chemical. looking for some help here.

Bob:

I personally do not think the roof looks to be that bad. It seems to work in context with the weathering of the rest of the locomotive.

I would welcome hearing other opinions from those with more experience than me.
