[sdiy] Weird Serge front panel overlap material

[Ben Barwise]

I did this with a laser printer, it works pretty well, although there
is not really a glue that will be complely invisible.Rather I just
relied on the mounting hardware to hold it on. In the end though it
doesnt really look much better than paper and laquer. It is fairly
hard to cut the holes

Problem with using a colour ink jet is that the film for it will smear
with any water or solvent

solvent shouldnt melt acetate
