RHOADS-N-RONSON Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Wondering what method and materials are suggested to create these "screens" I am reading about for doing a recreation of a Sandoval Randy Rhoads POLKA DOT V (White dots on Black body) project guitar. I am totally clueless as to how to generate the symmatry of the pattern, so that the dispersion pattern of the dots is exact. Can a sign shop do this for me? and what should I use for the screens? Frisket paper? Silk screen mesh? Please help,... Thank you,... Jimmy K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Yes a sign shop can do an excellent job for you and also they will be able to cut it out on a masking type of material that is typically used for sand blasting but also works well for painting.

Scott Rosenberger Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 Email me the size of the dots you want, and how far apart you want them and I'll make up the computer files for you for free. then you can take that to the sign shop and you wan't have to pay the charge for the design, just the cutting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHOADS-N-RONSON Posted February 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 Brian and Scott, thanks so much for the information! This project has been at a stand still while trying to figure out how to do this paint sceme correctly. Also Scott, I will email you the specifications on the lay out of the dot matrix as soon as I have double checked my calculations against my templates, thank you. Really glad I found this site, and I am looking forward to posting pics of projects of various recreations in the future. Jimmy K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
