It was one of GW's round flip top pots from the early 90s and was the oldest pot of paint I still possessed, largely unused due to the colour issues described above.

That's far too quickly indeed. I fully expect to be able to write my paints into my will, for future generations to enjoy.

But will they last until human civilization is long gone, remaining fresh until an alien explorer finds them?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7893627.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7893627.page GMT GW Paint Colour Consistency is Terrible and it Dries Up Too Quickly
But as a preventative measure, I usually add a few drops of water to the pot each time I use them. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7893705.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7893705.page GMT GW Paint Colour Consistency is Terrible and it Dries Up Too Quickly

Um....So, you're telling us that a paint went bad after 20+ years of sitting around? How exactly is that drying up too quickly, and what does that have to do with current GW paints? And why did you not try restoring it? And better yet, WHAT is the point of this thread?
I assume it's a sarcastic thread pointing how god awful the current GW paints are, drying out in a matter of months while the old school GW paints could last over 20 years

Actually the only paints I have from that period that have gone bad are the metallics and a couple of pots that had cracked lids. The metallics might be able to be revived by mixing the hell out of them, but I haven't tried.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7894185.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7894185.page GMT GW Paint Colour Consistency is Terrible and it Dries Up Too Quickly http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7894328.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7894328.page GMT GW Paint Colour Consistency is Terrible and it Dries Up Too Quickly http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7894339.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/651928/7894339.page GMT
