    Matt your 1st comment in this post page 1 (August 1st) you talk about getting practice builds before the iceman.
    Really you used all the white in the surfer girl. I used about 1 part white and 2 parts surfer girl but its probabky the camera used varies the actual colour.
    You are the Matt in Canning Vale aren't you ? I may be mistaken

    haha well I'm a dill! I had forgot I even mentioned it, and in this thread no less! Good to see one of us is paying attention

    Actually from memory I used straight green for my first coat, but it was quite transparent, so after that I just tipped the whole amount of white into the green bottle and applied the rest of the coats like that. I do remember expecting to see the green turn very creamy white after I added the white but it didn't, however I think the white made the green a little more opaque - so all in all it turned out just how I wanted it - hoping the Vintage Blonde is also the same.
