I needed this Old Bronze wax to go with my Gold, Silver, Copper and Steel waxes that I am using as shading on my Klingon Bird of Prey. I mix these waxes to get dozens of different shades of metallic panels and mechanical parts on the model. If you get it some where it is not suppose to be, it is easy to clean up with mineral spirits on a Q tip and it doesn't affect the Lacquer base coat. I love this stuff !!
