Oh my word you are a tinkerer of note and a McGyver type! Can't wait to see what's next for her!
then it will definitely look super sick !!!
eish - it will be like walking around with a mirror.
i am going to give this black hammered another shot.... seeing as last tie i sprayed it in the dark lol, maybe some sunlight will help me to see what im actually doing hahahahaha
I don't know Mothers Mag, but quite a few of these Spray Tins you buy locally do a clear laquer and on the small print it states "Polyeurothane"
Turns out the spray nozzle was messed up
Mothers Mag is what the Reonauts on ECF swear by to polish a raw tumbled. Only place I could find it in South Africa is here: http://www.crazydetailer.co.za/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13&products_id=132.
But I cannot identify a poly urethane laquer on that site.
come now peter - dont think about it ...
ok so i went to builders to exchange the paint, and i realized the the hammered Black will not give that nice of a look like the hammered grey or silver - so i am no longer going to give Catherine a hammered look - im going for something a it more classy - "oil rubbed bronze" its got a mat finish, which i think will make the polished brass bits pop more....
wish me luck
wish me luck
hey matthee - you can get that Laquer at almost any paint/hardware store - its just a clear coat paint, but make sure it has Poly urethane in - i think i saw 2 different ones now at builders
in-a-can-my-bru!I think we missunderstood each other Matthee, Mothers Mag is a polish/rubbing compound, i.e like Braso or Silvo. Laquer is a type of varnish, and the one I referred to consists of poly-uerothane as base. The clear laquer spray is a 100% see through varnish sprayed on to the object after it had been polished to protect the surface against i.e; oxidation/disclorouring and finger prints.
Much happier this time round...

thats not bronze
lol yea, i noticed
it has some small bronze particles in it that lights up to a bronze shimmer when sunlight hits it....i'll try upload a pic of the spray can bottle cap... hold on...
Its very difficult to see the bronze. The light needs to hit it at just the correct angle it seems...

Oooooo... so pretty! Catherine will be happy with her extreme make over!
yup there is some light dust/hair like particles on her here and there, but im sure i would be able to just rub them of with my hand once the paint is completely dry.... but its very minimal, i dont even think a photo will show it....Oooooo... so pretty! Catherine will be happy with her extreme make over!
Ok it can be seen via zoooom
