Thanks gents, we�re using a gun finishing product called �Aluminum Black� by Birchwood Casey for the color. 0% paint and really 0% oil paint based wash on Bernie�s KT tracks. Natural soil with just a dash of pigment were used to add highlight to areas where the sprockets, idlers and road wheels run. A small amount of this soiling is added to the cleat faces on the connecting links but here again most of what you see comes from the blackening process, even the crustiness.
Unfortunately my camera is down right now for repair but once it returns I�ll post some images of the set on my Sherman that I did beginning of the year, they now have over 40 hours of run time outdoors. Long term wear characteristics look good, they become even more enhanced with actual use.
