I think I saved this web page in the early 2000s. I saved it on a CD and just recently found it. I used this info to japan several planes and they came out great. I am not sure where the page came from originally; I think maybe "The Electronic Neanderthal." I tried various ways of uploading it here as a document with no luck so I posted it as a web page on my site; the links and images are missing of course. I bought some asphaltum a long time back, maybe 10 years, with intentions of making my own japanning and just yesterday found that as well. So here it is; everything you need to know about japanning.

I think that is also a copy of the original. Thanks for the link, I did not know that existed. Under "Japanning for Metal" there is a link to go to the page on mixing and curing instructions for making your own japanning. That link does not function either which is what makes me think the page is a copy. I would really like to find that page; otherwise I will have to do my own experimenting.

You are welcome.

My way of finding such links is to take a sentence from the copy then search for it using quotation marks.

My search only provided two or three links of which this was the best.

So often we treat things on the internet like they will last forever. Then they disappear when a web hosting site goes away.
