CP Laminate Opinion

Pages: << < (3/4) > >>

namedos:

They run in 4 x 8 sheets normally but you can buy other sizes.  I built the UA II and chose to go with different colors for the upper side, lower side and front.  You will need a little bit of extra space on each side to rough fit the  laminate.  Maybe a couple inches on each side.

CoryC:

I used Parts Express sticky stuff on the side of my CP box. 

It looks good, but you have to apply it slowly to make sure it's on tightly.  It's a bit painful wrapping oddly shaped things (like my CP box).  For the rest i will use normal plastic laminate.

It also has ugly seams underneath and inside, but no one will see that.






urbecrisch:

CoryC, looking good.  Are you laminating your CAB too or just painting it?

CoryC:

I'm going to use normal plastic laminate (adhesive & roller kind) for the cab. 

I didn't use it on the CP box as it was oddly shaped and i was worried about it being too fiddly. 

urbecrisch:

CoryC, on your CP, did you just stick on the laminate and then use a utility knife to cut the shape of the CP?  How did you hide the seams around the corners?
