Guest round2racing Posted August 4, 2009 Ok, so I have a customer who wanted some graphics for his baggo boards. I cut him a logo from his favorite beer. He loves them. Now that his boards are done, he wants decals to put on the sides that look like condensation. What the (*#@$)? I don't have a printer, and he says he doesn't want a wrap. He wants droplets of water. Do any of you have anything like that, or have an idea of what I can do to create this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 4, 2009 try some of that splash mud stuff from another thread... it sure had alot of droplets,, made me tired just thinking of weeding that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
midwaste 4 Posted August 4, 2009 There was a thread around a few weeks back where I posted some links to "doming", which is the process of applying clear epoxy over vinyl, and it "domes" up very thick and clear. That's what I would do if I wanted to simulate water droplets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest round2racing Posted August 4, 2009 Have any idea how to do this without spending $400 on the kit? Everything I find on Google refers you back to UltraDome and their kit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
midwaste 4 Posted August 4, 2009 http://www.extremeinkjet.com/Resin_Label_and_Vinyl_Doming_Systems_s/71.htm ^^They sell the resin by the kg for $45 or so, and you can just use the syringes they sell as well, fairly reasonably priced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HrdCorHillbilly 0 Posted August 4, 2009 Buy some Modge Podge, http://www.plaidonline.com/apmp.asp People use it to glue puzzles and other things like that together. It dries clear. put some droplets of that glue on the board. It will dry and look just like water droplets....just an idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edge 67 Posted August 7, 2009 I saw something a while back showing an automotive painter appling actual droplets of water to a project prior to painting with the color he intended the droplets to be. This was in a paint booth, so I'm sure he had heat available to speed the evaporation of the water leaving his paint colored droplets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
