#906-01-2012, 02:35 AMwhen paper shows through, i go one of two ways, either taking superglue, putting some on there and spreading it (quickly) with you're finger or doing a tiny bit of resin work wherever the paper is showing through. either way, the paper will absorb the mixture, become a solid, and be easily sanded down. Hope this helps!Comment

#1206-01-2012, 10:26 PMso i went to get a shield for the helmet today and since this work will be beat up on pretty badly i didn't want to spend too much on it, so this guy said he sold this
its a five snap shield for old motor cycle helmets and is just tinted. paid 12 bucks for it and it looks good inside the helmet i figured it might be of help on certain projects that people don't need a special mirrored coating on.
so when this dries
i will take pictures with it in for you all to see. thgats all the ups for tonight y'all!Comment
