Quoted from Robertstone0407:Custom color i came up with for a scared stiff. If pinball life would ship the legs i ordered I'd have the blood splatter set done. Contact me and we can truely turn your games into complete custom art.
How are you making custom colors? What's the process?
Quoted from Robertstone0407:You can mix colors that one happens to be a white, chrome and another color. Final finish and clear coat process
No i mean how are you mixing them? And how do you prep the metal? Do you use chemicals?
Quoted from Robertstone0407:Can't tell you how I'm mixing. General process is sand blast, degrease with denatured alcohol. Wipe with lint free tac cloth, hit with a clean torch to ensure all moisture is gone and burn off dust then paint
Ahh.. I didn't realize mixing poly powder was an industry secret? I'll just ask Alex.
Thanks.
Quoted from woody76:LOL. This guy.
Haha I actually did and Alex gave me a straight answer that didn’t require a novel be written.
He made some jokes about the quality of what’s being put on games that were pretty funny. Something along the lines of the finish being similar to the orange he ate for breakfast yesterday.
Quoted from Rdoyle1978:It would have helped if his analogy made any sense... actually on second thought.. nope it would still make no sense. Maybe he needed a Snickers?
Actually it makes perfect sense. When a finish isn’t smooth, it looks like an “orange peel”.
