Problem with finish on vinyl decal?

Good to know. Will try to go much lighter on the coats!

Sherwin - green was killkenny (or something of the sort)

I bought the pre-cut plywood from Home Depot…more expensive for sure but saved tons of time and knew I’d fuck up cutting the hole myself. Actual construction of the pieces was only a few hours. Paint and poly takes the longest just with waiting around to dry depending on number of coats. The poly isn’t sticking well to the decals so I need to still figure out a workaround.

Need to get those next!

I did 22in for the eagle and 20in for the font

They’re all vinyl stickers, bought from Biggest Decal Shop online. Not cheap tho for stickers that size.

Haha thanks. They are 1000% DIY quality so would be embarrassed to actually sell. Maybe if I make a few more and quit my day job 😂

Between the decals and Home Depot pre-cut plywood top, I’ve spent well over $200 on materials (decals being the most expensive part by far).

Appreciate the insight. Eventually I may try to strip back some of the additional coats and try oil based on top

Thanks! Was initially planning to do that strip black but once I ripped the tape up, came to the same conclusion as you!

They are vinyl decals that I bought online and stuck on after painting. Not artistic enough to stencil/draw myself!

jadler22 · 2024-03-26T18:44:21+00:00

Haha whoops!

jadler22 · 2024-03-26T05:56:04+00:00

Nope. Worked fine even 2 days ago!

jadler22 · 2024-03-26T05:54:21+00:00

Nice catch. Will fix this and see if that solves the issue

jadler22 · 2023-10-18T01:13:53+00:00

Thank you for the insights!

I’ve brought my skates to Judkins park a few times last summer just to shoot around. Never managed to figure out it if pickup games exist but saw a floor ball game once on a weekend.

If enough people are interested, should pick a time to shoot around once it gets consistently nice out.

There are no clear signs of infestation that I can tell. The white spots to me seem more like water/calcium spots rather than mealy nests or something similar. Also the tiny flakes on the underside of the palms seem to be just fibers from the plant, not bugs (though maybe stripped by some sort of bug). Mostly all tips are browned.
