Has anyone used glazing medium for making oil wash, and if you have, does it behave in the same way an oil wash made with mineral spirits does? I would like to be able to remove the excess wash but I really don't know if it will be as easy to remove. Thanks in advance.

Do you know what an oil wash is?

I was trying to find out if glazing medium works the same for preparing oil wash as mineral spirits does. perhaps I should have been more clear but it seems as though people don't actually read the entire post before replying or they just like replying to things they don't understand.

Perhaps this video will clarify things a bit for you. (not that anyone will actually watch it before replying) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fdN_2YuSN4

Thank you for the replies guys, Ill probably just have to get the supplies and find out for myself. I was hoping a few people would know from experience but its obviously not very popular and there is probably a reason for that. Ill post some results when I get a chance to make some washes.

I love reading on the W&N website lol.

I went ahead and just got the basics for now. I will buy some glazing medium later to see what effects I can achieve.
