Some (OK, most) of the plugs I E-texed are not very smooth, and I'd like to add a second coat. Is it best to sand them smooth before adding the second coat?
Thanks

Have you played around with the mix/temp/rotation etc...? -spence Highpockets 02-21-2007, 09:22 PM I've probably tried about everything short of a spinner. That's next on my list. spence 02-21-2007, 09:28 PM Can you post a photo? I've done all my plugs with E-Tex using a brush and just hanging and flipping by hand. Never had a problem unless my mix with too thick or didn't pay attention... -spence Highpockets 02-21-2007, 09:43 PM Check out my Alice Cooper Eyes post. I've got a few plug picts on there. They are not my worst, but still not very smooth. tattoobob 02-21-2007, 10:29 PM They don't look to bad, I heat mine up to make it thinner, I put it on with an acid brush Make sure the mix is 50/50 and use a lighter to pop the bubbles asap. jkswimmer 02-22-2007, 02:21 AM What I do is use a light to keep them warm.
