Also works great for gun shot powder and blood wounds. For my part 6 gloves I will combine black, brown, gray, and perhaps some other paints, and add water to dilute them. Then brush on coats lightly, and smear and dab dry. Also make little cuts in the collar and other areas like the shoulders, sleeve cuffs etc, and pick at them with a wire brush to fray them.You also throw the shirt down in a stone driveway and kick it around and drag it etc, although I prefer paint over real dirt for hygiene reasons.

Use primer spray paint in shades for weathering, browns, reds, blacks, greens. Also to stain clothes RTIZ clothing dye thinned with water and sprayed on clothing with a spray bottle. For body fluids, blood, doodie, etc use acryic paint as it goes on thick and stays glossy-ish. For bone chunks or brain matter mix "peaches and cream" or "apple" oatmeal with acrylic paint thinned with costume shop blood and apply to get either a "matte" ot "glossy" finish if you use this method use clear spray paints in either finish. To fray edges of clothing slice thinly and a lot woth razor blades and pull it with pliers, or you can use a dye grinder with stone of sanding wheels or a dremel tool with sanding wheels. You can also use a run of the mill brazing torch for spot burns and weathering but be careful. This is how i do this stuff its cheap easy and permanant. Hope this helps.

I use a stone grinding wheel as well. It works great.

For my JGTH shirt, I just buttoned it up around a deck chair and left it out for a month, then washed it. The sun did a good job of giving it a dull look. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"
