What is the difference between BRAGDON and AIM Weathering powders? Which is better? Which do you prefer?
Theyre basically the same except the colors are a little different. Either is good, see what color selection you like better.
I use Bragdon myself.
I keep them in a bigger box because eventually a pile will develop from spillage into it’s very own color.
For me it is useful except on locomotives where it may gum up the siderods and remove electical conductivity. I plan a airbrush for those projects sometime in future.
i got bragdon because that’s all the LHS had [:D]
the little bit i’ve used them they’ve worked great
I’ve tried the Bragdon ones and I really like them. I haven’t seen the others so I can’t comment. I like them because they adhere better than regular chalk and don’t disappear as much under Dullcote. It’s possible to get some really nice subtle effects with them.
I would have to vote for Bragdon. And its not just because he’s my neighbor. His weathering powered tones right on as well as being consistent out of the box. I also like the ones put out by MicroMark, but I can’t think of the name of them. Uncle???

The majority of the guys at the MTW forum favor the AIM stuff. I have been using Bragdon for a few years now. Mabey when I run out, I’ll try AIM.
But right now, I get what i need done using Bragdon.
I use the Bragdon powders and have not tried the others. As with others, when I exhaust this supply, I may try something else. {Course, as sparingly as I use these powders, it’ll be 27 years past Doomsday when I reorder…}[:-^]
