Stealth - recall that what I'm doing is sandblasting/wirebrushing a
small section at a time and coming back to it a month later to do
another small section. The turp/oil mix is to protect the surface
until the whole fuselage is blasted/brushed at which time I'll remove
the turp/oil mix and apply (probably) two part epoxy. So to answer
your query, after blasting/brushing, no, it will be frosty steel color

Use a light wash of cheap rust paint. Aluminum TremClad will wash off
with thinners or gasoline even after several years.Colours are not
much better.

Mix it with your Turps/linseed if you like
