'Erks' Alert! 2 steps forward, 1 step back possibly this weekend....
So...mindfull of the way the rubber parts have reacted to chemicals in the past, I thought it'd be best to try and avoid too much PlastiDip spluttering onto the rubbery surrounds and made up a simple template...
And "Et Vwahlahr" as the French say...
Then another coat....
And whilst thats drying lets get busy with the Steel Plating...
Whahey!
It's all going so well....... but wait.... oooerrrr...
Errr......close up...
There seems to have been a reaction (again!) btween the Bison Kit and the PlastiDip in the centre of the speaker, looks like the PlastiDip has shrunk and melted a layer of the Bison Kit or summat. It's more cosmetic than anything but it does look pants!
Meh!
