I did a search for “weather-it”, a preparation that was first available I think in the late seventies; no results. Anyone know if this is still being made?

I remember that product. Haven’t seen it in a while.

Aim Products has a similar line (scroll down)

and Vallejo has similar products:

Don’t forget “Rustall”

Hope that helps, Ed

Also Micro Mart has a similar product to the orginal:

Also, they have some other shades.

I used Weather-It to slightly darken an individual board lumber load for a flatcar around 1985. The darkening effect has never stopped. The load is still getting darker. I would not use it or any similiar formulation again. An alcohol based dye may give better results.
