BFF Larry Posted April 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 i was reading up on the latex paint and glass and from what i gathered its going to peal/flake off???? my friend, pablo, told me that it would shrink and flake because of heat and sunlight. but i put on 4 coats of this paint while it was hot, direct sunlight, and with a heat lamp on it, so hopefully the paint dont shrink and flake with the stress test i put on it. i just checked it this morning, and the paint seems fine... for now, its still really hard and thick Team Clearly Louder (MECA)Team DC Audio ++* SELLING the CACTUS SOUNDS K12 for $1550 shipped *++ HMU!!! 3 flips. nollie flips. big flips. hardflips. - steez Youtube Channel My Build Log 95 Bonneville SSE - WALLED/4th Order - ~30 cubes - *thanks LoganBerry, CortezDVT, Cj18, SuperCharged DC, Ryan-RAM Designs,LoudNLow931* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsix Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Nice idea on the windows BFF....hmm. And I wouldnt be too worried about it flaking and peeling off, as long as you cleaned the glass well and dont fuck with it, itll stay put. I had a dodge ram years ago and thats how we blacked out the glass on the camper shell it had on the bed and it help up fine, year round for like 5 years or so. I mean itll peel if you gouge it or something but if its just sittin back there not gettin messed with itll last a while, plus it is easy to touch up if it does get nicked. 1999 Lincoln Town Car-(build underway) - (2) SA15s, 4th order, DAT 2500.1, O2 mids n highs, 250a alt, HC 2400, Big 3.... 1994 Pontiac T/A for speeding tickets.- - Currently on jack stands, wanting to be a real race car "Your local forecast, all the ladies in the metro area should expect to see 8 inches tonight" - The Todd Decaf, on 01 November 2011 - 02:38 PM, said: i provide the ammo for destruction, the trigger finger is connected to the volume knob tho URBAN GORILLA AUDIO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noobtastic14 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 time for beauty panels Yes! I was looking at noobtastics build and saw that he cut some sheet metal. Yessir I did. I used .100" 2024 T3 aluminum. This particular metal is thick which gives it some strength but it is a very soft aluminum so I can cut it and work it with mostly woodworking tools (flush trim router bit, table saw, jig saw w/metal blade) This makes it sturdy when on the wall face but very very easy to work with before it goes up. -Drew I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional.

HatersGonnaHate Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'd say it's gonna be cheaper to buy it locally. You'd save on shipping for sure. That's just my 2 cents. Unless Drew knows a good online supplier. Which he probably does. Drew is a cornucopia of knowledge lately.

Noobtastic14 Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 I've always been a wealth of knowledge spreading the seed of good will towards mankind. Although I did not purchase my material locally, I would recommend looking at your local metal supply shops for material before shopping online. I lucked out and got my material as scrap from your neighborhood US Government Air Force Base. -Drew I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional.
