We are, however, calling it a paint job because in order to remove it, you need to sand it like paint. |
I understand. I just missed it the first time it was posted.
I have another rattle can paint job here to do for a customer, and the way you do it is MUCH easier, even with a primer coat and then the clear on top. And considering the time and effort involved it is THE way to go IMHO. While my paint jobs may be unique to each mask and can be "weighted" one color or another (folks get either an equal mix, heavy on green, heavy on brown, or heavy on tan) so that they best match their actual playing environment, the work and time involved is just not cost effective for me.... I don't think I will be doing any more of these. It has just become too much work (and room for error) for the price I charge.
I may have to just shoot folks off in your direction.
