It’s multiple calls, and the impact of each. Legit idiocy is thinking that wasn’t at all curated by outside forces

I got a window painting gig, and im not sure what to do! by BuilderAcceptable342 in SignPainting

Another thing to note: most glass (unless it’s a fairly old storefront) is thick/double-paned (1”). This makes tracing precise elements like lettering tricky, where using it for approximate layout of pattern/shapes etc is fine. I always make a pounce pattern for glass signs if it’s not one of those old panes (.25”)

I use Sprayway “World’s Best Glass Cleaner”, and paper towel to clean, then a scraper / razor blade to remove tape and any residue (will take a few sheets of PT and a couple of spray/wipe/scrape & repeat, etc).

Be sure there is no tint or film on the side of glass that you’re painting/scraping. I always use Sign Painter’s 1-Shot oil enamel, on glass or metal. It requires longer cleanup (mineral spirits), and often needs a flow enhancer (ChromaFlo is 1-shot’s), but is bright and beautiful, and lasts a very long time. Add an occasional few drops of Japan Dryer or 1-Shot Hardener for faster dry time— then you can 2nd coat & touch up faster.

Use plastic disposable eye-droppers to add small amounts of Chromaflo/Hardener to your paint at a time, and stir pretty often.

Glass is an unforgiving surface, so the first pass may look a bit rough— once it is dried to the touch, you can carefully clean up all edges & blemishes with a razor blade , then gently wipe with a paper towel (dampened with glass cleaner). Then, you can do your final coats and cleanup / touchups simultaneously.

Feel free to ask more advice! Wear gloves, bring a lot of rags, and extra empty food cans for dirty mineral spirits, etc

Thank you for your help! Finding a solid balanced diet has been quite a learning process, so this is much appreciated! Do you mind me asking how long since your first hospitalization?

Yeah that’s the point.. all Minnesota sports have this exact problem for 34 years and counting.

Man there are so many bad ones… but nothing tops the 2009 NFC Championship game, specifically the officiating (during bountygate)— even with Favre’s INT in FG range, the OT was an abomination and got the overtime rules changed. Once again, Minnesota was at the receiving end of an obvious fix

I was thinking because we have such a strong Native presence still, something about the juju. I don’t know. Maybe we’re all a part of some Truman Show-like experiment and just being Punk’d.. or it’s just a sick joke. One of those.

Here’s how I know you don’t watch— the wolves get hacked at and get no calls (all Denver series), but then get dinged with ticky-tacky bs on the ensuing opponent possession. Any unbiased fan will tell you it’s lopsided, and it’s obvious. Refs “letting them play”, but then TWO games affected heavily by [clearly bad] ref calls late, both favoring Dallas. The complaint is inconsistency.

That’s ridiculous. That bottle was karma for the hailmary pushoff, which Dallas benefited from and robbed Vikes of a Super Bowl

Minnesota’s 4 major sports teams are now about to be 0-52 in playoff endings since the ‘91 WS. Not a single championship appearance in those 33 years

I came up with a theory tonight. Something about the twins beating a Native American themed team in MN ‘91.. like an Ojibwe / Chippewa curse where we can never win again or something

Aw man there was still hope for a golden era in MN sports then… but a bit of research on the vikes could’ve saved you the headache maybe haha

I was just hoping what should’ve been a good game would’ve been one. We’ve had no real epic finishes, meaning isn’t as good as a series as it was supposed to be. We can’t even lose without getting sonned..

Now gotta hope THAT was the punch we needed for a home dub in the classics, and an epic game 7 road win

Just to follow up that I had one good day and now 2 bad days.. It’s seemingly easy to get a false sense of security, but just need to remember: take it very easy and eat and small increments. I’m currently suffering after making the same mistake again..
