What's new

SX350 V100 100watt box mod build.

Paint.

Went with a white primer and a orange enamel paint. Was going to clear coat it but the enamel was incredibly tough and it was like sanding glass, so I skipped the clear because paint is tougher than the clear coat.


Painted it and it had "orange skin" finish, thought it was maybe me that was to lean on the coats so I baked it and then sanded it to get rid of the skin feel, it was like sanding glass. So I gave it a real heavy couple of coats and was a bit better but still had a bit off orange skin, suppose that's what enamel paint is like. Its super tough stuff.

Its not as bad as in the photos. When touch it feels like glass too, its really weird. Its not like Hammermite its different and hard to explain. If are going to paint a mod use this stuff its long lasting stuff.
 
This is probably not your first box build right? Do you have a page of some sort where I can see your creations?
 
That's awesome! Me wants :-p

Seriously tho great choice in colour
And the drilled holes give it that sleek style mods need :-)



I love this forum more than my misses :-)
 
Looks good to me fella.
I've just this second sanded my second top coat and applied another.
Defo takes lots of time to get the paint properly cured. At least a few days for me so far.
