Re: [CBQ] Painting firebox

I use a Floquil CN Grey which I brush paint after the base coat of Scalecoat 
Engine Blacked has been baked on.   Once this is dry, I lightly blotch the 
firebox with Floquil brown and some black.  This is thinned and dabbed on 
with a small brush, but lightly done.   I decal the locomotive before 
anything else, seal it and lightly airbrush with dust and very thin grime 
low down on the drivers, wheels and tender base.  Heavier weathering is up 
to you.  Most steam up through the early fifties was kept clean.

I am just starting to paint an HO O-5 and am wondering what others have used 
to paint the firebox and smokebox?

List Floquil as well as I still have some.
