The Nordic Gawd Posted December 25, 2003 Report Share Posted December 25, 2003 I was thinking for the carriburst competition i would use a see through paint or something thats tinted. do these come in aerosol i believe it was mentioned somewhere in this forum. TRANSLUCENTS THATS THE NAME are there any translucent aerosols? because i dont have a spray gun or a compressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhemann Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 not that i know of.but you can use water based stains to color the wood and clear over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nordic Gawd Posted December 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 yeah that was my original intention but I was kind of inspired by the "fanned" edges tutorial and wanted to incorporate something like that into my design.

lovekraft Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Here ya go, Nordic, House of Kolor Kandy in rattlecans. They also carry Adhereto adhesion promoter and SG100 topcoat clear in aerosols. And of course, Guitar Reranch carries a blue dye aerosol.

rhoads56 Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Never seen a good burst finish done using a rattle can. Might look good from the other side of the room, but up close they look crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 This was done with a rattle can. I found out with light sanding I could blend the burst pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
