Is it possible to pre-mix and store an oil wash? I want to mix to a specific level my W N Lamp Black and mineral spirits in large quantities to have a preset dark wash. Any ideas on the best way to do so, or if it can be done?
Thanks

Yes - just make sure your container is resistant to the solvent you use.

I use glass bottles for mine:

Some plastics will not like having mineral spirits put in them - so be sure to double check...and if you aren't sure, I would probably look for a container I knew wouldn't melt.

Just like other paints, you will probably need to shake them well if you let them go for long periods without using them.
