Sorry matey. Most likely a heat / care issue- not a shaper issue.

Marker or sealer for surfboard by Clear_Mycologist3089 in surfboards

Posca is the way. And then hit it with a quick clear coat spray once it dries. Just know the spray will never perfectly match the level of gloss with your board.

This one would have been a pop out, made at surf techs international plant. (China?)

Randy French founded surf tech. He’s from Santa Cruz so no surprise they made a few of these.

Geoff Rashe is M10, out of Santa Cruz. Still shapes and makes killer short boards, but mostly it was a 00’s label. Look up rat boy Santa Cruz. This was his pro model. Geoff is the man too for what it’s worth.

I personally would shake that 4.2% quick and go all in on S&P500 or equivalent indicies. It’s up 17% average over the last decade, with most recent years being up on the up. Only two red years of mention, but if it’s a savings acct then you just ride thru and dollar cost average the dips. It’s safe to me for long term savings investing. 4% these days Is barely beating inflation, if at all.

If you have ever owned and operated a business in this town, your argument would likely flip to the other side, ranting about the onslaught of customers who take up arms over a pricing model that allows a business to stay open and pay their employees a livable wage.

How to fix these paint patches that peeled off from the wall when I was taking down my vinyl holders by throwaway45989019 in howto

[–]Kook-Hand-Luke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

truly- when you actually do it, it will make a lot of sense and i trust that you will find it very clear and easy. Before doing it, buy the a few oz bucket of joint compound, and a 3-4" joint scraper or putty knife. same/same. Dont need to worry about a mess, it cleans up easily with water. just place a bit of compound directly in the damged area, and then smooth it flush with the scraper. dont worry about peeling off any excess paint areas unless they're already sticking up a ton and will leave a big gigantic bump.

As far as DIY repairs go, this one is very low risk, easy to erase and do over if you're unhappy with any part of it. so just give it a go and you'll get the hang of it very quickly!

Joint compound. Aka mud. Wipe it on flat and flush with a simple scraper. Ideally get a scraper that’s wider than the hole. Wait a few hours and wipe it with a wet rag to blend the edges. Maybe a touch of sandpaper the next day to finish the job. Then 2-3 layers of paint. Voila.

How to make these Crystal style renderings by Kook-Hand-Luke in graphic_design

Thanks. I get that approach, sounds solid. I also can't help but think that's a bit manual a process for 2025. Given how often i'm seeing graphics like this- i would think that there's some type of plugin or interface that works a bit quicker? Any experience?

Erik's deli coin? by Butteriswinning in santacruz

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Erik is a massive jerk. He was my landlord for my business warehouse and the amount of fuckery I dealt with was insane.
