  • Dangit!!!

    So we're in the process of building some displays for a large refuse processing company, one of them being a steel tree, for their recycling pavilion at their main office.


    Here it is before treatment:




    It is a process of build, then patina with chemicals, then clearcoat in the paintroom.


    Chemicals on:




    Drying off:




    So I leave to go deliver some samples downtown, and come back to the shop to see this:



    Cool- then I realize that they're not in the paintroom. Oh ****- my truck... Noooooo!!! They have a giant fan blowing the air out of the overhead doorway, straight onto the cars parked outside.

    Long story short- the 3 week detail of my truck isn't done. Time to clay again.

    I will say though- it's pretty cool when done- it looks like steel wood.

    That's pretty cool.... except for the part about having to clay your truck again.
