Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 26, 2015 was just thinking back a few years and wondered how many of you remember using krylon fusion plastic paint to make a 2 color fade on vinyl film before cutting. anyone else remember some of the old tricks for different effects before printing came along? heck a think a lot of boat numbers were done with the old krylon trick!

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 26, 2015 just use a rattlecan of krylon fusion (made for plastics) paint to add a fade across your vinyl - let it dry and cut. 6-8 years ago it was a big fad - just remembered it tonight when i read krylon somewhere. fusion is actually made to adhere to plastics - I use the white on my mailbox as rubbermaid quite making the biggest plastic mailbox in white, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knucklehead 530 Posted January 26, 2015 I just did some a couple weeks ago. HOK, and airbrush. Printers are great, but still won't match an airbrush, and paint, for some things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
