      @@NicMac there is actually an automotive acrilic clear coat;D
      Just apply it on multiple layers so u get a solid and smooth resin/alike finish

    • @olympusaviation7346
      @olympusaviation7346 Před 10 měsíci +1

      Polyurethane on the other hand works pretty well too, both give a pretty strong water resistant finish
      If you use pearl or candy finished spray paints, car clear coating gives a pretty nice touch to the metallic colors
      Just be careful to apply it with some primer cause the layers of paint and clear coat can begin to delaminate

    @das_hans Před 2 lety +10

    Gorgeous and clean work. The only thing I would say is that for the next deck you should keep in mind where the trucks will attach to the deck. I mean the birds face would have the wheels screwed right on top of it. I have this issue with many art decks, and I get it’s more meant to be a canvas rather than a functional deck but it still bothers me because I’m weird that way. I think incorporating that kind of thing is cool with actual skateboards but would probably mess up the composition for just the naked board.

    • @NicMac
      @NicMac  Před 2 lety +3

      Ahaha “I’m weird like that” I appreciate that Hans thanks so much for your message :)
