First Foiled Plug
So after much internet reading and searching I decided to try doing a foil plug.
Im no pro at this and this is the first one Ive attempted, so far pretty happy with results.
I sprayed some transparent lime gold pearl on top, white belly and then sprayed a lclear ime pearl over the belly and sides.
From what Ive been reading it will need somewhere between 3 and 6 coats of epoxy to make it smooth.
If it works out I will definetly do some more over the winter months. Ill post more pics as the build continues.

Yeah been busy with everything, plugs, life and two jobs, not complaining though.
I really like the look of it so far just a lot of steps.
Hopefully will get a dozen or so done for plugfest
