CP - Plexi or what?
« on: June 11, 2004, 09:52:22 am »
I would like my CP to be as water-proof as possible.  It's going to be made from 3/4" MDF and I have read that Plexi (or whatever) is difficult and sometimes expensive.

I don't normally allow drinks near my computer equipment but you know how kids are sometimes and I definately don't want rings on my CP!

So, is there some kind of sealant (spelling??) that would do the same thing?

Thanks

My 50" vf2 cab has water damage to the graphics on the control panel... and it HAS plexi.  Plexi is not going to stop a liquid unless it's water tight.
