Paint \"Sealant\" for Roman Scutum

[Matthew Amt]

Ah, it will get chalky white marks if it gets rained on. I tend to coat it with wax, such as Sno-Seal, applied with a hair dryer. We've also done one or two with either neatsfoot or linseed oil. Oil needs time to really set in and dry, but the wax is ready to go immediately upon completion. A couple of my guys have uncoated paint jobs, and simply don't worry about the marks--they aren't that horrible.
