Title: new color powder
Post by: broschro on November 23, 2013, 03:34:06 AM
Doing a job for an AT member, what do y'all think? I like it. It's a flip flop powder with metal flake.

It's hard to tell in the pictures but it looks really good. In the right light it goes from almost black to a really nice purple color.

Looks nice.  Posts, stand and everything done in that on something like a beachmaster would be really cool. How is the coating holding up to salt water?

this was just a test on the 10-60 star working on the stand now, lots and lots of hand work with different grits of sandpaper to get the best finish.they say sandblasting leave's tiny pits in softer metals, so I'm doing this all by hand.
