Case mods made easier
Ever want that powder-coat look, with out the expense or wait period? Go to your local hardware store and pick up some “Krylon” Fusion’s paint. On plastics and some stock case coatings it bonds, and I do mean bonds. This isn’t your average paint, its Massive and Crinos! It actually fuses itself to the plastic (hence the name “Fusion”) and creates a molecular bond beyond the surface of the paint. Not to mention, looks uber cool!

...the problem I see a lot is that many good amv makers think they suck, and many bad amv makers think they're good.

Unfortunately yes. But seal it and dry the sealer under heat and the smell disappears relatively quickly. Even without sealer its not a heavy scent like with most spray on paints. I imagine it would eventually fade away. The smell also depends on how heavy your coats are. I like to use several very light coatings. This gives the paint time to bond with the plastic. Its also provides a more even finished look. When the cases are 100% done I am listing them on ebay. I'll post pics then.FATTY_VM wrote:** o .. and does it have an obnoxious smell to it even after the job is done, like most spray paints?
