POS don't even ship flammable things la.

somemore spray can, when they roll the box, they can hear the canister ball inside moving. doh.gif
Then your parcel sure GG, or legal action.

I think if using DHL or private courier shouldn't be a problem as long as you notifiy them.

He send me the spray can using regular post already. should take around 4 working days to arrive. so i think spray can shipment by post office is ok nod.gif

http://pinoygundam.proboards.com/index.cgi...play&thread=130

apparently the sanding technique same like achieving a mirror finish for processor lapping doh.gif so should be easy for overclockers
btw is sanding sponges like in the link easily available at hardware shop?

I'm planning to paint my kit (handbrush only) by having basic color like red, blue, yellow, black & white, basicly I can have any color I want by mixing them, right? but how to make chrome effect by mixing? is there other stuff need to add in?

Just to let you know, it's hard to achieve nice chrome/metallic paint finishing by hand brush, either get an airbrush or a spraycan (of chrome/metallic colors).
To explain that "hard", try it you'll know why  tongue.gif

coz it wont get even right? never mind I change my selection to silver already.

I just recently goes shopping at multifilla, I buy pin vice at exactly rm20, milliput putty & decal sheet for watersilde. so many items u never thought u can find there, it has everything for artwork & of course, modelling. the uncle there very helpful since he know every item in his shop, in fact, u can even do a brainstorming session with him for ur project.

I also ask him bout item needed to do resin part like in this tutorial:
http://z3.invisionfree.com/Zero_G/index.php?showtopic=2273

1. clay - rm15 for 500 gram
2. silicone rubber - rm100 for 1kg
3. silicone release agent - rm18 (come in spray can)
4. resin got 2 type:-
- polyester - rm30 (1kg)
- epoxy - rm60 (1kg)

Anybody dare to try? brows.gif

Go to ZeroG forum, look for a member named "oldman", the boss of hobbiescorner.com.

He has machine for water slide decal printing, including white ink n metallic ink (Silver/Gold).
*
I know bout him, just wondering if there is any solution for a regular printer to print white colored decal. plus, printing my own design give me more freedom & i can test fit the design 1st to see if it looks good or not.

can anyone do rough calculation on charges oldman will put for, say half of a4 size decal?
