[motm] textured paint application - satellite case
2003-06-13 by elhardt@att.net
A long while back I posted a picture of me testing out textured paint as a possible Tolex/vinyl replacement. I finally found need for its use on a small satellite case to hold a small overflow of modules that wouldn't fit into my big case. Since trying to apply vinyl to something with such an odd shape and small size would have been a sloppy mess, the paint worked well. Picture posted in the motm yahoogroups file section for those interested. Filename is satellite_case.jpg. In the photo the paint looks too shiney because of the lighting. In person it looks better. I used Semi-Flat black paint over the textured paint, which is somewhere between flat and semi-gloss. Texture paint is Krylon "Make It Stone" series. -Elhardt
