Hi all,

I'm about to brave weathering my track, but I'm after some advise - enamel or acrylic?

I'm planning to use Railmatch sleeper grime. Track is not ballasted yet. I will likely weather the track again once ballasted.

But, I'm at a cross road. Do I go enamel or acrylic?

Many thanks

The sleeper grime I use (ref 1406) is enamel but I don't know whether it's better than an acrylic

I prefer the enamel as it seems to cover better

I've used both without big problems but the enamel seems to bond noticeably better to Kato track.
