A couple more prep and painting questions.
INDY replied to INDY's topic in Assembly, Mods, and Painting
Thanks Terrell! This piece of armor, has been painted for about two weeks ago, Do you have to wait for a time period after painting the armor, before applying the glaze? -
I have read to wash armor with soap and water before you start priming. What type of soap should I use? Liquid dish soap? Car Wash I already painted one piece of armor to try out painting. I used 1 coat rustoleum plastic primer and 3 coats of professional rustoleum gloss white. (the silver spray can) It came out good and it's shinny but not as glossy as I would like it. How do I make it more glossy? what type/brand of gloss should I use? Any help with this will be very much appreciated! Thanks, Dave

Turtle Wax? I never heard of using turtle wax. I am on my 3rd coat of paint. It's shinny but doesn't have the gloss that I was hoping to get!

I am looking for a place where I can buy sheets of white plastic, such as ABS, strlyene and such. I found a couple places on line, but before I buy from them, I figured I would check to see if anyone here knows a good place to order from for plastic needs. There is a local hobby shop near me, but they don't sell sheets big enough for what I need and they don't sell WHITE ABS, only black. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Congratulations!

Hi, Here are the rest of the pics. Please let me know if there is any part of the suit that you would like to get a closer look at or if there is anything that I need to fix to meet the EIB standards.

Here are pics of the E-11. I am going home for lunch, I'll take pics of the Hovis, more of the helmet, the shoulder straps to show they don't have rivets and an upclose pic of the holster. -

Thanks Chris! I will posting pics of the E-11 later this afternoon. I am also going home for lunch and will take a close pic of HOVI Mic tips. The only isssue I see if the shoulder bells in the back. I am thick in the shoulder area, I am ex- bodybuilder that hasn't touched a weight few years. I am not sure what I can do about the shoulder area.
