Moncao badges finished

[pete_clio]

Just sprayed lacquer onto them today.

first pic is numbers just painted on,

This is them sanded with wet n dry 1200,

and finally lacquer, not as glossy as the finish acheived by clio-coby but im happy enough. maybe they will need flatted down but well see when they dry properly!

verdict?

[pete_clio]

lol...thats the next stage! quite worried about taking them off you know! lol

gonna let them harden till tomorrow i think!

 

[Stuart182]

Got any shots with them on your jamjar?

 

[pete_clio]

none yet....still drying and may need rubbed down to get a bit more gloss. though i quite like the way they are.

 

[fUbAr]

how many layers of laquer did you put on?

need to do 3 or 4 to get a nice, high gloss finish.

 

[pete_clio]

there was 3/4 on it, for some reason it dried all rough after 20 mines form the previous coat

[pete_clio]

cheers guys just fired a bit more laquer on there and seems to be bringing a gloss up. but im gonna stop now cause it looks well and ill prob ruin it if i go anymore!

 

[Fagan]

iirc, if the laqcuer is giving you a bumpy/rough texture, your holding the can too far away from the job.

dont quote me, but think this is right.

 

[pete_clio]

either that OR the fact the badges were in line with the heater causing it to dry too quickly, but it was roughed up again and sprayed...seems to be working!

Looking Good Fella, Best to leave away from Heat in my short spraying experinence LOL, Nice Colour combo though

 

[pete_clio]

haha yea...just found that out myself it seems! ive left them in here in warm ish room but ill prob get high during the night or something! brill!

[Coby.]

Hahaha, I do it in the garage with a small old school heater nearby, Have the Door Closed and you certainly can feel the effects of the Laqcuer

No probs Mate

looks quality did you do the 2.0 bit by hand? i did the rb182 by hand came out really good didnt do it with tape as i thought it way leave raggy edges on the lettering

 

[pete_clio]

yep small artist brush and renault touch up paint. by the time youd mask it off you can have both painted twice im sure! too fiddly for masking

 

[Mikey]

[pete_clio]

[Tigger]

Don't worry Pete I wont be copying your idea's,
I'll just going with the ones I mentioned on msn before I even had my car

In all fairness they do look a lot better than the first pic you showed me, you added more lacquer since that I think?

 

[HartZ]

Yeah they look good!
