partsexpress vinyl

<< < (7/7)

Organic Jerk:
Update on my vinyl situation: I decided not to use either.

After trying both of them on different areas on my CP,  I didnt end up liking either.  It didn't feel durable and I can see trying to vinyl the more complicated areas of my cabinet being a hassle.  The thisoldgame stuff was way too senstive and the partsexpress stuff ended up being brittle.  I couldn't get it going around the cp without it cracking midway.

I ended up getting a MUCH better finish (in my opinion) by spraypainting textured black paint and sanding down the texture a bit with a 320 grit sanding sponge.  It's also much more durable, much easier to patch, and much easier to handle the job with.

So my verdict: textured spraypaint + light sanding with very fine grit to take down texture.


Sorry, folks.

Ummon:
Sounds good. Don't need a paint gun and chamber to do it in, either. Pictures of the color and type of texture paint?
